This pendant invites you to carry the ancestral wisdom of Taxco with you. Fire opal, with its translucent lime-green and veins of light, captures the energy of traditional medicine. Each symbol—the Moon, guardian of cycles; Medicine, guardian of balance—was carved by hand, and then the stone was inset with the precision of a master jeweler. This is not an ornament: it is a talisman.

.950 silver is purer than .925, softer, more workable. It is the silver that Taxco's master plateros choose for pieces that demand the impossible details. The certificate of authenticity confirms it with the Quinto MÉXICO carved on the back: this piece is authentic, of origin, with no compromises.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisan silver for 500 years. When you buy a pendant from Arte Taxco, you buy a direct connection to that tradition: hands that know the craft, inherited tools, techniques taught not in schools but in family workshops. The story of Arte Taxco is the story of that continuity.

A: No. We sell the pendant alone so you can choose the chain that speaks to you most — silver, leather, beads. If you'd like a .950 silver chain to match, email hola@artetaxco.mx.

Q: What is Fire Opal?
A: A variety of opal with flashes of green and yellow fire. It is delicate — avoid direct impacts and store it in a dry place.

Q: What's the difference between .950 and .925 silver?
A: .950 is 95% pure silver, more ductile and more noble. It's used in pieces that demand fine detail. Both are authentic; .950 is what the craftsman chooses for the impossible.
