A cross that blends the sacred with Mexico's prehispanic legacy. This pendant measures 5.7 cm long — visible, present, never overwhelming — and every silver sphere soldered by hand tells a story of craft. Granulation is the ancient technique that prehispanic artisans already mastered; today, Taxco masters keep it alive, sphere by sphere, solder by solder. The density of the design, with its geometric reliefs interlaced, transforms this piece into a modern talisman tracing five centuries of silversmith tradition.

Authentic .925 sterling silver, certified with its hallmark. A cross without stones — pure silver — which means its value is direct, its beauty rooted in form and craftsmanship. Granulation demands precision: every bead is placed and soldered individually, no machine shortcut. This is why no two crosses are exactly alike; each is a singular act of mastery.

Taxco, the world capital of artisan silver for 500 years, has refined these techniques to perfection. The prehispanic motifs — those geometric symbols adorning the cross — speak of the civilizations that first inhabited this land. When you wear this piece, you carry the continuity of a culture that never vanished: it evolved. The Arte Taxco story is one of those masters who chose to honor both traditions — Christian sacred and indigenous heritage — in pure silver.

This pendant does NOT come with a chain. It's the cross alone, so you personalize it with the link you love: a delicate chain for quiet elegance, or a thicker one for presence. The choice is yours. And when you decide it's time to move on, the Lifetime Buyback Program buys back your cross with no expiration — up to 70% in store credit — because your pure silver always has value.
