These earrings bring the intensity of deep red Fire Opal to eye level. Each stone is unique — the color shifts in light, from intense red to warm orange flashes. Sterling .950 is purer than .925 silver, making them ideal for sensitive skin. The setting is done by hand, stone by stone, no machinery.

Hand stone setting is a craft that demands patience: the silversmith positions each opal in its silver bezel and secures it manually. This is not casting or stamping — it is artisanal work. The .950 silver carries the hallmark, a seal of authenticity proving its purity.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. Since Spanish colonization, this city's artisans have refined techniques of setting, inlay, and finishing that remain the global standard today. The Arte Taxco story is part of that legacy: every piece connects five centuries of silversmith mastery.
