These earrings prove that beauty doesn't require volume. Each piece holds a polished black onyx, manually set into its sterling .950 frame, where the contrast between the stone's deep tone and the silver's brightness creates perfect balance. Small enough to go unnoticed in a video call, present enough to complement any face.

Sterling .950 is purer than .925: it's the choice of those who demand authenticity without compromise. Each earring bears the Taxco hallmark, the seal certifying its origin in the world's capital of artisanal silversmithing. Hand-setting each stone means no automation here — only the silversmith's hands, one by one, securing the onyx in place.

Taxco has been the cradle of Mexican silvercraft for 500 years. Every earring you hold is part of that heritage: technique, material honesty, and a finish only generations of craft can achieve. These earrings are a lifetime purchase — literally.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the onyx natural?
A: Yes, natural onyx. It's a variety of agate in deep black, polished and hand-set into the silver.

Q: Are they comfortable to wear daily?
A: Absolutely. Each one weighs just 0.9 g — lighter than a coin. You won't know you're wearing them.

Q: What's the difference between .950 and .925 silver?
A: .950 is 95% pure silver (vs. 92.5% in .925). It's whiter, more oxidation-resistant, and higher in value — we choose it for small pieces that deserve the best.
