This shark pendant in .950 silver breathes motion. Every line of the body suggests speed — sharp fins, defined jaw, aerodynamic form. The fire opal covering the dorsal fin erupts in dark red, orange, and green flashes; each angle reveals a different color. It is animal jewelry that does not pretend to be merely decorative: it is portable power.

Hand stone setting is the craft that has defined Taxco's silversmithing for centuries. Each stone is placed individually, without press or machinery, secured in the metal with watchmaker's precision. .950 silver is purer than .925 — it contains 95% fine silver, making it ideal for pieces demanding durability and lasting brilliance. The hallmark guarantees authenticity.

Taxco, Guerrero, has been the world capital of artisanal silversmithing for 500 years. The craft is not simply tradition: it is alchemy science. When you buy a Taxco pendant, you inherit that skill — the Arte Taxco story is the story of masters who taught others to see silver as living matter.

This is the pendant only — chain sold separately, so you choose the length and thickness that best suits your neck. If you prefer a recommended chain, write to hola@artetaxco.mx. And because your investment in silver lasts a lifetime, we buy back this pendant whenever you decide, with no expiration.

Q: Is the fire opal natural?
A: Yes, natural fire opal hand-set in stone. Each piece has its own unique tones and patterns — no two are alike.
