Earrings that capture the magic of fire opal — that iridescent play of color that shifts in every light. Each fire opal is one-of-a-kind: no two stones have the exact same dance of reds, oranges, and golds. At 3.8 cm, they're noticeable without being heavy — perfect for a special night or for anyone who loves wearing nature's color.

.950 silver with its hallmark stamped — the certification of authenticity in the metal itself. The setting is hand-done: each stone sits in its own silver cradle, worked individually. No machine can replicate the care required to secure something as fragile as opal; the Taxco artisan knows this and works with the patience the stone demands. The lost-wax casting technique allows these precise settings that hold the gem without brute force.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. The Arte Taxco story is the story of that tradition: generations of masters learning to see silver not as metal, but as conversation. When you buy Taxco earrings, you buy that knowledge made into jewelry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is fire opal natural?
A: Yes. Fire opal is a natural variety of opal, prized for its multicolor iridescent sparkle. Every stone is unique — no two fire opals are identical.

Q: Can I wear these in water or swimming?
A: Not recommended. Opal is sensitive to chlorine and salt water, which can dehydrate the stone. Wear for events or occasions, and store them dry.

Q: What's the difference between .950 and .925 silver?
A: .950 silver is 95% pure silver (vs. 92.5% in .925), making it more durable and a whiter tone. These earrings are .950, certified with the hallmark.
