Frequently asked questions

Q: Does it come with a chain?
A: No. The price is for the pendant only. You can use any .925 or silver chain you already have. If you need a new chain, contact hola@artetaxco.mx.

Q: What is the repousse technique?
A: Repousse is an ancient art where silver is struck from the back with punches, creating reliefs that rise from the front. Each strike is unique — no two pieces are exactly alike.

Q: Is a 3 cm pendant large enough?
A: Yes. It's the size of a Mexican 5-peso coin — when worn on a chain, it's very visible and striking. It's proportional, elegant, and practical.
