Fire opal is the stone of constant change. In light, it transforms — yellows, oranges, reds, greens dancing without repetition. This .950 silver ring holds it with a hand-set mounting that honors each facet, allowing light to enter and exit freely. It is not a stone to rest on skin; it is a stone to look at, to surprise yourself each time you see it.

.950 silver is maximum commercial purity, reserved for the finest work. Its hallmark certifies it. Hand-set means each stone was placed individually, without press or machinery — only the silversmith's hands and skill. The stone inlay is the art of invisible mountings, where the stone appears to float in silver.

Taxco, the world capital of handcrafted silver for 500 years, is where this ring is born. The Arte Taxco story is one of silversmiths who inherit technique and respect for raw materials. When you buy a Taxco piece, you buy continuity of craft.

This piece is made to order, meaning your exact size will be hand-sized in the workshop. That takes time, but guarantees a perfect fit and an intimate relationship with the ring from day one.
