This silver starfish is a jewel designed for you — small, versatile, ready to become the centerpiece of a necklace you choose. At just 3 centimeters long, it's the size of a postage stamp, but when you wear it, it carries delicate and powerful presence. The granulated technique, inherited from pre-Hispanic silversmiths, transforms each soldered sphere into an act of precision: the craftsman applies heat and copper to fix each tiny silver ball to the surface, creating a pattern that shines differently in the light.

The sterling .925 silver is authentic — marked with the hallmark that certifies its purity — and the granulation is a signature of craft. This is not a stamped or mass-cast piece: each sphere is placed, soldered, and polished by hand. In Taxco, 500 years of silversmithing have perfected this art. The starfish form comes from casting, but it is the granulation that transforms it into a work of art.

A charm without a chain is a promise: you decide how to wear it. On a silver chain you already own, on a cord or thread that fits your style, or kept as a collector's piece. Arte Taxco respects that each buyer has their own vision of how to wear silver. And when you decide it's no longer for you, the Lifetime Buyback Program will repurchase it — up to 70% in store credit, no expiration. Your silver always has value.
