These square earrings capture the essence of fire opal — that liquid fire effect only this stone delivers. At 2.4 cm, they hit the perfect proportion: visible without being loud. The purple dancing across the stone is mesmerizing under light, shifting in tone as you move. Each opal is one-of-a-kind, so no two earrings are exactly alike — and that's their real value.

The hand-set technique means each stone is placed individually into the .925 sterling — no machines, no shortcuts. The .925 hallmark on the backing is your guarantee of authenticity. These earrings are as delicate as the craftsmanship that holds them.

Taxco has been the world's capital of artisanal silver for 500 years, and it remains the only place where jewelry of this caliber is still made by hand. The Arte Taxco story begins in that tradition: we don't make copies, we make pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is fire opal?
A: A semi-precious stone with natural iridescence — flashes of red, orange, and purple fire that shift with light. It's softer than cubic zirconia, so it requires extra care.

Q: Are both earrings identical?
A: Opal is natural, so each stone is unique. The earrings in a pair are very similar, but the fire pattern may vary slightly — that's what makes them authentic.

Q: How long do they take to make?
A: Made-to-order in ~10 days. Ask about availability if you need them sooner.
