This dolphin captures the freedom of the ocean in pure silver. Each fire opal stone — in that lime green that echoes moving water — was set by hand, without machines or shortcuts. The greenish tone of the gem, with its inner fire flash, makes the piece shine differently in every light. A pendant that stands out when worn, generous in size (5.3 cm), perfect for those who love nature and seek something singular.

.950 sterling is even purer than .925 — it contains 95% pure silver versus 92.5%. This means greater resistance to tarnish and a warmer shine that will last for years. The certificate of authenticity backs it: every piece is born with its hallmark sealed.

In Taxco, for 500 years, silversmiths have mastered the art of setting stone in metal without losing the integrity of form. This dolphin is heir to that tradition — the story of Arte Taxco is the story of this craft.
