This silver .950 marlin captures the ocean's spirit in miniature. At 4.5 cm long, it's the perfect size to wear as a daily amulet or meaningful gift. The fire opal in lime green tone has been hand-inlaid into the dorsal fin, creating a natural light effect that shifts with every angle — each time you look, the stone seems to wake with a different color.
Made in .950 silver, a purity that speaks of dedication. The 950 Hallmark certifies its authenticity, and Taxco's polish gives it that clean brilliance that defines the region's silvercraft. The stone inlay is not a press or machine — each facet was placed by hand by artisans trained in generations of technique.
For 500 years, Taxco has been the world's capital of artisanal silver. Since the 16th century, plateros in this city have perfected techniques that blend precision with soul — every marlin from Taxco carries that history. The Arte Taxco story is the story of a piece like this: made with respect for the material, the time, and who will wear it.
