This pendant captures the spirit of the sea turtle — guardian of the ocean, ancestral symbol of longevity and serenity. At 4.5 cm long, it's the perfect size to stand out without overwhelming. The entire piece was hand-repousse: each shell line, each flipper, struck with a hammer and chisel from the back, creating three-dimensional relief that catches the light. In Taxco, this technique lives on as tradition — no two pendants are exactly alike because each one is hammered by hand.

Authentic sterling .925 silver with its hallmark guarantee, the mark that certifies purity. Repousse is pure craftsmanship: hammer strike by hammer strike, the Taxco silversmith brings the image to life. The pendant arrives ready to wear — you choose the chain that fits your neck, your style, your ideal length. Some prefer it on a delicate chain for a minimalist feel; others on thick links for more presence and weight. The choice is yours.

Taxco has been the world capital of handcrafted silver for 500 years. The Arte Taxco story springs from that tradition: honest silverwork, made by hands that know the craft. When you buy this pendant, you invest in that heritage — in the knowledge of generations, in someone's real time spent hammering pure silver so it can be yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it include a chain?
A: No. The price is for the pendant only. You can choose any silver chain from our catalog, or use one you already have.

Q: What is repousse and why does it take so long?
A: It's an ancient Taxco technique: the silversmith hammers from the back using precise chisels, creating raised relief in the silver. Each pendant takes hours. That's why no two are identical.

Q: Can I wear this in the ocean or pool?
A: Sterling .925 is durable, but chlorine will darken it quickly. Remove it before entering the water — clean it afterward and it shines again.
