A cross that honors the classical proportion of Taxco's religious silverware tradition. The fire opal, with its luminous lime-green, catches light in its own way — each facet of the pendant glows differently as you move. The hand-set inlay secures each face of the stone without press or mold. It is a pendant for those who seek meaning and beauty, in a generous size (6 cm) that reads beautifully when worn.

Crafted in .950 sterling — purity above the standard .925 — and sealed with the .925 Hallmark that certifies its authenticity. Taxco silver carries 500 years of reputation: this cross comes from the tradition of master silversmiths who transformed a Guerrero village into the world capital of artisanal silver. It is not factory-made. It is craft.

Fire opal is delicate stone — it asks for care. But that care is part of the bond we form with what we love. Every time you clean it, store it, wear it, you acknowledge it is precious. And it is: pure Taxco silver + living stone + artisan's hand.

A: The Hallmark is the official seal of authenticity for Mexican silver. Ours reads .925, certifying your piece is genuine Taxco silver, not alloy. More on certificate of authenticity.
