A pendant in perfect proportion — just over a thumb's length — capturing the elegance of art-deco. Marcasite (iron pyrite), set piece by piece in geometric patterns, glows with that distinctive silver-gray tone that made the 1920s style famous. In Taxco, marcasite is synonymous with mastery: each stone must fit without gaps, each setting must hold it without damage.

Authentic sterling silver .925 with certificate of authenticity. Hand-set inlay requires the precision of a master jeweler — marcasite is more delicate than other stones, and its placement is pure craft. .925 hallmark as proof of purity.

For 500 years, Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silversmithing. Marcasite, in particular, is an art-deco legacy that Taxco's workshops perfected and keep alive today. This pendant is small, but it is pure tradition of the craft — the Arte Taxco story condensed in silver and stone.
