The circular design carved in .950 silver echoes the prehispanic symbols that have thrived in Taxco for five centuries — it's not just a stone, it's a connection to the thousand-year-old craft of Mexico's silver capital.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e.950 sterling (hallmark 950) is the maximum purity in traditional Taxco jewelry. Unlike .925, it carries 95 parts pure silver per 100, making it more valuable and heavier — when you hold this pendant, you feel the difference. It was assembled in Taxco using hand-casting technique, where specialized artisans set the Fire Opal by hand and polish every detail. Each piece is unique because the finish is handcrafted, not industrial.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaxco is not just a name: it's a silversmithing province that has existed for five centuries. When you buy a pendant from Arte Taxco, you buy the continuity of a craft that has survived millennia. This sky-blue Fire Opal carries that heritage — the artisan's precision, the wisdom of prehispanic design, and the authenticity of .950 silver. \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/nuestra-historia\"\u003eLearn the story of Arte Taxco\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuy risk-free: if you ever decide this pendant isn't for you, we buy back your silver in store credit, no expiration, up to 35%. \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/programa-joya-de-por-vida\"\u003eDiscover the Lifetime Buyback Program\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#10022; Authentic .950 sterling — maximum Taxco purity\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#10022; Fire Opal with natural sky-blue reflections\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#10022; Prehispanic motifs hand-carved into silver\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#10022; No chain — choose the one that matches your style\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#10022; Buyback up to 35% no expiration — your silver always has value\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#128141; Anyone who loves stones with natural light and movement\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#128100; Everyday or special wear — versatile on any neckline\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u0026#127873; Gifts with ancestral and artisanal meaning\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMeasurements \u0026 Shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pendant measures 3.5 cm long by 2.2 cm wide — the size of a large coin, perfect for wearing visible or as an intimate talisman. \u003cstrong\u003ePendant only; chain sold separately\u003c\/strong\u003e.
