These earrings capture the freedom of the sea. Each starfish gleams with fire opals in a green olive tone — that unique hue that seems to shift with the light, as if holding the reflection of the ocean. The granulated details along the edges echo the natural texture of a starfish, while the stone setting is done entirely by hand, gem by gem, in Taxco's workshops.

Sterling .950 is the purest silver used in fine jewelry — 95% pure silver, 5% copper. Each pair is marked with the .950 hallmark, a certificate of authenticity guaranteeing its purity. The hand stone setting technique requires precision and patience: each fire opal is placed in its space, secured with careful taps that never risk fracturing the gem. No two pairs are identical — the variation in opal color and the position of each stone makes your pair truly one-of-a-kind.

For 500 years, Taxco has been the world capital of artisan silver. The Arte Taxco story is part of that legacy: every piece emerges from inherited craft, where artisans use techniques passed down through generations. This is not mass-produced design — this is a pair assembled with respect for the material and the person who will wear it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is fire opal?
A: A variety of opal with play-of-color in green, yellow, and orange tones. Yours shows green olive with warmer flashes. It's natural mineral opal from Mexico, not synthetic.

Q: Is hand stone setting durable?
A: Yes, when done properly. The fire opal is secured in its silver setting and doesn't move. That said, avoid direct impact on the stone and don't press it — it's more delicate than diamond.

Q: Can I customize them?
R: We're made-to-order. If you want to adjust size, switch the opal type, or request a different closure, email hola@artetaxco.mx.
