A small but bold pendant: the prehispanic sun, symbol of energy and rebirth in Mexica cosmology, now in .925 Taxco silver. The green fire opal burns at the center — each stone is unique, with its own veins and light play. It fits any chain, adapts to any neck, travels light in your bag. Size doesn't make a piece; intention does.

Sterling .925 with guaranteed hallmark. The stone is hand-set in combined technique — each opal facet catches light. This precision work is what you see up close: a finish that comes from Taxco's silversmithing craft, not a machine — a tradition five centuries old.

Taxco is not just a place; it's a legacy. Five hundred years of artisanal silver made this Guerrero city the world capital of sterling craftsmanship. Every piece from Arte Taxco honors that heritage — the story of Arte Taxco is that tradition brought to now, made accessible, made for those who love the real thing.

Frequently Asked

Q: Does it come with a chain?
A: No. Pendant only (3 cm × 2 cm). Use any chain you own, or reach out to hola@artetaxco.mx — we'll help you find the right one.

Q: Is fire opal durable?
A: It's softer than sapphire or cubic zirconia. Avoid hard impact and chlorinated water. Store it dry and wear fearlessly — a thousand years of prehispanic jewelry tells us stone survives life.

Q: What's the exact technique?
A: Casting .925 silver in a mold, then hand-setting the stone and mirror polishing. No two pendants are identical — each carries its own traces of craft.
