This pendant breathes the ethnic tradition of Taxco. Its cutout design — carved piece by piece with the precision of a watchmaker — lets light through and creates depth. On the reverse, stone inlay emerges as a secret: each facet engraved by hand, each void intentional. It is not decoration; it is silver architecture. At 5.6 cm long, it is a presence — neither invisible nor arrogant — perfect for those who seek symbol without noise.

The .950 silver in this pendant is nearly pure — 95 parts silver to 5 parts copper. It carries a certified hallmark, a guarantee of authenticity. The cutout technique is one of the most demanding in jewelry: one error with the saw ruins the piece. That is why each pendant emerges different from the hands of Taxco cutters: no machine can replicate the patience of the craft.

Taxco: 500 years of silversmithing embodied in every cut, every polish, every inlay. Discover the story of Arte Taxco and why origin matters. This pendant is handmade in Guerrero, the world capital of artisanal silver, where each artisan inherits technique from generations past.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the pendant come with a chain?
A: No. The pendant (5.6 cm) is sold separately from the chain because each person chooses their own style. If you need a recommendation, write to hola@artetaxco.mx.

Q: What is the difference between cutout and inlay?
A: Cutout carves the design into the silver — what you see on the front. Inlay places stone (or relief) on the back. Together they create depth and light.

Q: Can I wear this pendant in the ocean?
A: No. Chlorine and salt accelerate patina and can damage the inlay. Keep it dry when you are not wearing it.

Do You Have Silver You No Longer Wear?
