This rigid bangle merges art deco sophistication with Taxco craftsmanship. Green marcasite — iron pyrite with its unmistakable mineral brilliance — is hand-set stone by stone in patterns that dance with light. At 4.5 cm wide, this is a statement piece: visible from across the room, commanding presence on the skin. The 6.5 cm interior diameter fits most wrists; the bangle is rigid (no clasp), so it slides on carefully over your hand.

Each marcasite was placed individually by hand in sterling .925 with hallmark. No press machines here — only the silversmith's hands and decades of Taxco tradition. For 500 years, Taxco has perfected the art of setting stone in silver, a legacy Arte Taxco honors in every piece.

Marcasite is delicate: its beauty lives in that fragility. Keep it away from water and chlorine. Wear it on nights where it shines without risk — dinners, events, moments where your wrist tells a story. Your skin and the silver will age together; the marcasite will darken slightly over time, adding character.

Frequently Asked

Q: What is marcasite?
A: Iron pyrite, a mineral with metallic shine. It's been used since the art deco era (1920s–30s) in collector jewelry. It's not diamond or sapphire; its value lies in the setting craftsmanship and the era it represents.

Q: Can I shower or swim with this bangle?
A: No. Water, chlorine, and perfumes darken marcasite. Remove it before showers, pools, or beaches. Clean with a soft, dry microfiber cloth.

Q: How do I know if the 6.5 cm diameter fits me?
A: Measure your wrist with a soft tape (where you'd normally wear a bracelet) and add 1–1.5 cm. If your wrist measures 5–5.5 cm, this 6.5 cm bangle is for you. Message us before ordering if you're unsure.
