These earrings capture the energy of fire opal in its olive green expression — an earthy tone that sparkles with golden and green flashes as it moves. Each stone was hand-set into .950 silver, the same metal that Taxco silversmiths have perfected for five centuries. The result: a pair so light (just 1.53 grams) you'll forget you're wearing them, yet rich enough for everyday elegance.

.950 silver is purer than standard .925 — it contains 95% pure silver versus 92.5%. This makes it more resistant to oxidation and brighter in the light. The Hallmark guarantees authenticity. Hand-setting the stone is work no machine can replicate: each fire opal was placed and secured individually, with jeweler's precision.

Taxco, Mexico, is the world capital of artisan silversmithing — 500 years of craft in the hands of families passing down pre-Hispanic and colonial techniques. When you buy Fire Opal earrings from Arte Taxco, you buy that legacy: an entire city that lives for silver, masters training apprentices, tradition that cannot be mass-produced. The Arte Taxco story is Taxco's story.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is fire opal?
A: A variety of opal with green, orange, and yellow tones that flash like fire when it moves. It's a natural stone — each one is unique. The olive green of this pair is its signature — no two are alike.

Q: Is .950 silver better than .925?
A: Yes — it contains 95% pure silver versus 92.5% in standard .925. It's brighter, more oxidation-resistant, and has slightly higher value. Both are hypoallergenic; .950 is the premium choice.
