This ring captures the essence of Fire Opal: its iridescent tones in green, yellow, and orange dance with light as if you were wearing liquid fire on your finger. The .950 sterling silver (95% pure) cradles the stone with care, and the pierced sides allow light to flow through the design. Every movement reveals new color facets — it is a living piece.

Hand-set in Taxco workshops by artisans who understand that such a delicate stone demands precision and patience. Sterling .950 is the standard of fine jewelry worldwide — softer than .925, but nobler and more refined. The hallmark guarantees its authenticity. This ring is not mass-produced: each setting is a manual decision.

Taxco has been the heart of Mexican silversmithing for 500 years. The craft of hand-setting stones remains an endangered art — modern pressing machines can place stones in seconds, but not with the respect for materials practiced by a Taxco jeweler. The Arte Taxco story is the story of that honored craft.
