A pendant that plays with form — the octopus, a creature of ocean mystery and intelligence, comes to life in silver with a carefree grin. The white cubic zirconia set at its center adds brilliance without pretense. Every detail, from the facial expression to the undulating tentacles, was designed to be worn with a smile.

Cast in sterling .925 silver with a visible hallmark certifying authenticity, each cubic zirconia was then hand-set into its silver bezel. The polished finish highlights the contrast between metal and stone. A combined technique that preserves Taxco's artisanal spirit in a compact, versatile piece.

Taxco has been the world capital of silver craftsmanship for 500 years. The Arte Taxco story is one of families who pass down their craft, generation after generation, in the workshops of Guerrero.
