Each earring suspends a fire opal drop, hand-cut and set in .950 sterling silver. The olive green is deep and mesmerizing — that particular green only fire opal gives, with inner flashes that shift in the light. At 3.3 cm long, they balance visibility with elegance. They hang from a solid silver shepherd's hook designed for all-day comfort.

Sterling .950 is the highest purity in jewelry — nearly pure silver. It bears a hallmark as proof of authenticity. Stone inlay is a craft requiring precision: each opal is placed and secured entirely by hand, no presses, no shortcuts. This is why these earrings are made to order when your request arrives — every stone must be verified before setting. Taxco has been home to this craft for 500 years.

Fire opal is one of the most sought gemstones in Taxco, treasured by collectors and designers alike. Its color variation — that particular olive green — makes it singular. The story of Arte Taxco is tied to these stones: Taxco's silversmithing would not be what it is without the skill to work with Mexican gems and minerals, respecting their natural beauty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is stone inlay?
A: It's the hand-craft of placing and securing a gemstone within a silver setting, with no machines. Every stone is verified and worked entirely by hand — this is what sets a Taxco piece apart from industrial jewelry.

Q: Is fire opal fragile?
A: It's more delicate than turquoise or amethyst. We recommend removing your earrings before sports or showers, and storing them in a dry case to preserve their brilliance.

Q: How long is the crafting time?
A: Since they're made to order, the process takes 2–3 weeks from order confirmation. This ensures every stone is verified before setting — they're not mass-produced in batches.
