This pendant captures the essence of Prehispanic tradition in a versatile format: 3.5 centimeters of presence without excess. The fire opal at the center glows in reds, oranges, and golds — each piece unique because the stone varies naturally. Around it, geometric carved detail and hand-setting anchor it in the craft of jewelry making.

Sterling .950 is purer than .925, making this piece ideal for sensitive skin. The .950 hallmark guarantees authenticity and lasting quality. The finish combines precision casting with manual stone-setting — a process that honors both material and the opal's natural play of color. It is a pendant that invites touch, that lets you feel the difference between mass-produced and handmade.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. In every Arte Taxco pendant lives that heritage: techniques passed from generation to generation, a relationship with silver that is respect more than habit. The Prehispanic design is not nostalgia — it is a reminder that geometric beauty does not need fashion to matter.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Does it come with a chain?
A: No. The price is for the pendant only. You can buy the chain separately, which lets you choose the length and style that works best with your look.

Q: What is a .950 hallmark?
A: It is the official assay mark that certifies silver purity — .950 means 950 parts per thousand are pure silver. It is your guarantee of authenticity and durability. It is stamped on the piece.

Q: Is fire opal durable?
A: It is more delicate than quartz. Avoid hard impacts and extreme temperature changes. Store the pendant in a dry, dark case. With care, it will last for years and its brilliance will remain spectacular.
