This dragonfly flies in pure silver. Its wings hold the play of fire opal colors — greens, blues, reds, yellows — in a ballet of light that shifts with every movement. Each color emerges from the stone naturally, no two alike. The inlay was done by hand: every piece of opal was placed and polished individually into the .950 silver. It is a technique that takes hours and demands the precision of a master craftsman.

The dragonfly is a symbol of transformation and movement in pre-Hispanic tradition and in Taxco silversmithing. Wear a guardian of change, a witness to light, close to your heart. Sterling .950 from Taxco is purer than standard .925 — softer, nobler, and responsive to polishing in ways only the workshops of Guerrero master. Check the certificate of authenticity that comes with your purchase.

Taxco has been the silver capital of the world for 500 years — since silver flowed from its mines. Today every piece made there carries that legacy: hands that know the metal, inherited techniques, and a commitment to jewelry that lasts. This dragonfly is born from that tradition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it include a chain?
A: No. The price is for the pendant only. You can add a sterling silver chain in your preferred length — contact us for guidance on thickness and style to best complement your look.

Q: Why does the fire opal change color?
A: It is the nature of opal — the color play is pure optics, light reflections in the crystal structure. Every movement of the piece reveals different colors. That is what makes it special and unique.

Q: Can I wear it daily?
A: Opal is delicate. It is best for occasional wear or special days. Avoid bumps, perfumes, and salt water. Store in a dry case when not wearing.
