The smallest earrings are often the most powerful. These minuscule treasures capture fire opal — that play of orange, red, and green that emerges from within the stone — and fix it in .925 sterling with the precision of hand setting. At 1.4 cm, they are discreet yet impossible to ignore when light finds them. Every turn of your head is a flash of color.

The sterling silver carries its hallmark, proof of workshop authenticity. The certificate of authenticity confirms it. Fire opal is a living stone — its hues shift with angle and light, never identical twice. That is part of its charm and value.

Taxco has been the world's capital of silvercraft for 500 years. The Arte Taxco story is the story of the craft that holds every drop of silver in your ear. We inherit that tradition not as a museum but as living practice: each piece follows the path walked by hundreds of generations of silversmiths.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is fire opal fragile?
A: It is a delicate stone compared to diamond or sapphire. Avoid direct blows and store the earrings in separate cases. With reasonable care, they last for years.

Q: Is each pair different?
A: Yes. Fire opal is not lab-made; each stone has its own color play. Your pair will be one of a kind.

Q: How is the stone set?
A: By hand, in the workshop. The jeweler fixes the opal in place without press or machine, which takes time but allows greater precision and care.
