This pendant awakens the magic of Taxco in every detail. The fire opal — with its lime-green fire dancing under light — is a stone of protection in prehispanic tradition, and the paw design honors it. Each stone was hand-set, without press or machine: the artisan held it, measured it, and secured it with precision. At 4.7 cm, it sits beautifully at the chest, present without dominating. The .950 silver is purer than .925 — whiter, more durable — and carries the hallmark that certifies its purity.

Taxco has been the world capital of silversmithing for 500 years. The Arte Taxco story is the story of that craft: every pendant you hold today is heir to five centuries of mastery. Hand-setting stone is not learned from a machine; it is learned by watching, trying, failing. That's why each piece speaks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it come with a chain?
A: No, this price is for the pendant only. Choose your chain separately — we offer sterling silver chains from 40 to 60 cm. Email hola@artetaxco.mx for recommendations.

Q: How delicate is the stone?
A: Fire opal is crystalline and requires care. Avoid impacts, chlorine, and alcohol-based perfumes. With proper care, it will last for years.

Q: Why .950 instead of .925?
A: .950 silver is 5% purer — whiter and more durable. It's the choice of Taxco for collector pieces. Both are authentic; .950 is the step toward mastery.
