These drop earrings capture the magic of fire opal — each stone displays its own personal rainbow of reds, oranges, and yellows, shifting with the light. The design is minimal and elegant; the stone is the star. The hand-set mounting places each opal in its silver cradle without press or machine, allowing the stone to shine freely. At 4.2 cm long, these are ideal for someone who loves details that speak for themselves.

Hand stone inlay is an art of patience — every contact point between the silver and opal is worked manually to protect the stone while giving it movement. The casting technique used in Taxco allows these forms to be achieved with precision, and the hand-setting elevates the piece to true jewelry. Sterling .925 with its hallmark engraved, proof of the purity you wear in your ear.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years — and it is no coincidence. The craft of stone setting, casting, and polishing was inherited through centuries in these mountains of Guerrero. The Arte Taxco story is about keeping that tradition alive, piece by piece, in hands that respect the material. These earrings are part of that legacy.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is fire opal fragile?
A: It is a delicate but wearable stone if cared for — avoid direct impacts and sudden temperature changes. Remove earrings before sleep or intense exercise.

Q: What does hand-set mean?
A: It means every point where the silver touches the opal was worked with hand tools to secure the stone without damaging it. We do not use a press — it is slower, but the stone breathes better.

Q: Can I change the length?
A: Yes, email hola@artetaxco.mx to ask if we can adjust the design to your preference.
