Earrings that catch the light with every turn. Fire opal in blue — that stone that seems to hold liquid fire inside — is hand-set in .950 sterling silver, the purest after .999. Each stone is unique, with its own veining and color shifts. No two pairs are the same. The hook is solid sterling silver, nickel-free, designed to wear comfortably for hours.

Hand stone inlay is a craft technique: the stone is not machine-pressed but placed with precision and fixed individually. This respects the natural geometry of the stone — it doesn't force it. .950 silver with its hallmark: a guarantee of Taxco authenticity.

Taxco: 500 years as the world's capital of artisan silversmithing. Every earring that leaves here carries that heritage — the Arte Taxco story is how that craft is preserved. These are not mass-market accessories; they are a choice for what is made with care.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is fire opal durable?
R: Opal is softer than diamond or ruby (6.5 on the Mohs scale). We recommend avoiding direct impact and not exposing it to soapy water. With care, it will last for years.

Q: What is hand stone inlay?
R: The stone is placed and secured individually, without mechanical pressing. This respects the stone's natural shape and is safer for delicate pieces like opal.

Q: Can I order a custom pair?
R: Yes — we make them to order. Lead time is longer (~2 weeks). Write to hola@artetaxco.mx with what you are looking for.
