A minimalist pendant that breathes. The open star in openwork is proof that Taxco silver lives in the details: each cut is a choice, each void tells a story. At 1.8 cm, it fits in your palm but shines at your neck — small as a whisper, lasting as authentic silver.

Openwork demands jeweler's precision. In Taxco, the craftsman places a sheet of silver in the jeweler's saw and removes the excess metal, leaving only the pure form of the star. One slip and the entire piece crumbles. That's why each pendant is unique, and that's why sterling .925 with its certificate of authenticity is your guarantee of true craftsmanship.

Taxco has been cutting silver this way for 500 years. Since the 16th century, when New Spain silver changed the world's course, the artisans of this city have perfected every technique. Openwork is one of the most demanding — and one that would disappear without masters to teach it. The Arte Taxco story is about keeping this craft alive.

Q: What is openwork?
A: A Taxco technique that cuts designs into silver using a jeweler's saw, leaving open spaces. It demands patience and precision; one mistake and the piece is lost.

Q: Is openwork durable?
