The Aztec Calendar — symbol of Mexica cosmology — is repousséed in .950 silver, a technique where the artisan hammers from behind with precision punches. No two pairs are identical: each strike is a singular choice. At 3 cm long, they command presence without excess — the perfect measure of refinement. Ideal for those who carry Mesoamerican history with discretion and authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e.950 silver is superior purity: even nobler than .925, with lower alloy content. Its Mexican hallmark certifies its standard. In Taxco, where silversmithing is a tradition of 500 years, this repoussé technique passes from master to apprentice — each piece reflects that patience and knowledge. Discover how each creation is born in the workshops of Mexico's silver capital.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaxco is not just a place: it is the heart of Mexican artisanal jewelry. For five centuries, its silversmiths have perfected techniques inherited from the prehispanic and colonial eras. The repoussé you see here is part of that living continuum — a direct link between the original Aztec Calendar and your wrist. \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/nuestra-historia\"\u003eThe Arte Taxco story\u003c\/a\u003e is the story of that tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuy risk-free.
