These earrings capture the magic of Fire Opal: a play of colors shifting from green to orange, red to golden yellow, tones that dance in the light. Each stone is set in .950 silver with the precision of a master craftsman — no press, no machine — every gem placed by the hands of a Taxco artisan who has spent years perfecting this craft. The size is proportional to the face, bold enough to glow, delicate enough for everyday wear. They are earrings that tell a mineral story every time they move.

Sterling .950 is purer than .925 silver, certified by its hallmark. Hand stone setting allows each opal to sit perfectly, without the coldness of industrial setting. Fire Opal — a variety that shines with inner fire — is the stone for those who are not afraid of color, who want their jewel to be a conversation. In Taxco, where silversmithing has lived in the same hands for 500 years, the tradition of cutting and setting stone is almost as old as the craft of smelting silver itself.

These earrings are made to order — no stock list. When you order, they are cut in Taxco in ~2 weeks. That is the time it takes to make true jewelry, without shortcuts. Write to hola@artetaxco.mx to confirm Fire Opal availability at the time you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why does Fire Opal cost more than other stones?
A: Because it is rarer, it shines with that unique inner fire, and hand setting each stone requires greater precision — the material is delicate.

Q: Can I order the earrings with a different stone?
A: Yes. Write to hola@artetaxco.mx — we offer Fire Opal, turquoise, malachite, and more. Each stone has its own production time.

Q: What if the opal chips or cracks?
A: Opals are soft and sensitive to impact and temperature changes. Wear with care, store in a case, avoid hot water and ultrasonic cleaning. If it cracks from normal use, we can replace the stone for a fee.
