Fire opal in blue catches light like no other stone — those green and blue flashes dancing beneath the surface are the signature of a gem with soul. This pendant, just 3.6 cm, is designed made-to-order for you in Taxco, where silversmiths have guarded every secret of the craft for five centuries. Hand-setting means each stone is placed by hand, no press, no machine. The paw detail — that textured finish — is Taxco's signature: a small gesture of craft on every piece.

Sterling .950, purer than the standard .925. Its hallmark certifies it: that mark is your guarantee of authenticity. When you hold this pendant, you hold refined metal, living stone, and the backing of a shop that buys back your silver without expiration. Fire opal is fragile — that's the price of its beauty — so every touch matters. Email hola@artetaxco.mx with questions before you buy.

Taxco had been carving silver for five hundred years before you were born. This is the world capital of handcrafted silver jewelry — not marketing, geography. The Arte Taxco story is that tradition made into a store, into trust, into your piece always holding value.

A: No, pendant only. That way you pick exactly the chain you want. Write us if you'd like thickness and length suggestions.

Q: What is .950 silver?
A: Silver purer than .925 — 95% pure vs. 92.5%. Denser, more valuable, more authentic. The hallmark certifies it.

Q: Is fire opal fragile?
A: Yes, more delicate than cubic zirconia or quartz. Avoid hits, water, and perfume. Store in a case. Cared for well, it lasts a lifetime.
