A pendant that breathes prehispanic symbolism — wings as transformation, skull as eternal reminder. This design merges precision casting with the handwork of setting fire opal, a stone that plays with light like few others. At 3.5 × 2.8 cm, it's visible without overwhelming, perfect for wearing close to your heart or on a chain of your choice. Every line is cut into the mold with intention — no two pieces are exactly alike.

Sterling .950 is a step beyond .925: higher purity, greater durability, lasting brilliance. Its certificate of authenticity confirms it. The fire opal we set by hand demands precision: each stone is unique, with its own color play (white, yellow, red, green in this one) that never repeats. A fusion of prehispanic craftsmanship and Taxco silver engineering.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. Since colonial times, the artisans of Guerrero have translated prehispanic cosmology into silver — the Arte Taxco story is part of that legacy. Every pendant from our workshop honors that tradition, without invented tales: it's authentic silver, verified stone, hands that know the craft.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Does it include a chain?
A: No, pendant only. You can choose any chain you prefer — length, thickness, style — from our shop or elsewhere. Need a recommendation? Write us: hola@artetaxco.mx

Q: How delicate is fire opal?
A: Opal is more fragile than hard stones (cubic zirconia, turquoise). Avoid impacts, pressure, and prolonged water. With care, it lasts for years — it's a living stone that ages beautifully.

Q: Can I wear it in the shower or pool?
A: We don't recommend it. Chlorine and salt water damage both the silver and the opal. Store it dry in a case after wearing.

Have old silver you don't wear?

Old silver, inherited pieces, or jewelry you've outgrown — we buy it back in store credit, no expiration. Send photos to hola@artetaxco.mx and we'll give you an estimate.
