Fire opal is the stone of transformation — its red, orange, and green flashes dance with every movement. These earrings capture that magic in two sterling hearts, hand-set in Taxco. At 4 cm long, they command attention without overwhelming: visible, delicate, impossible to ignore. The hand-set technique is the signature of this craft: each stone placed individually, without press or machine.

Authentic sterling .925, marked with the hallmark of Taxco's workshops. The hand-set closure that seals each stone is the heart of artisanal work — hours of precision to secure what cannot be lost. This technique makes the opal the protagonist, not mere ornament: the light that enters the stone is the responsibility of the artisan who set it.

Taxco has been the heart of Mexican jewelry for 500 years. Taxco silversmiths developed stone-setting techniques that are now taught in jewelry schools around the world — the Arte Taxco story is the continuity of that tradition. Every piece from our workshops carries that legacy in its lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is fire opal?
A: A variety of opal with red-orange flash that looks like flames. It is harder than other opals and more stable for daily wear — though it remains delicate, like all living stone.

Q: Does hand-set cost more?
A: Yes, because it requires hours of expert work. But it is the only way to guarantee the stone is secure and that light enters where it should.

Q: Can I return or exchange if the hooks don't feel comfortable?
A: Absolutely. If the hook closure doesn't suit you, we can make them with a different closure — write to hola@artetaxco.mx.
