A butterfly that soars at your neckline. The fire opal's multicolor palette — green, purple, and blue flashing in candlelight — moves like living wings. Each pendant is hand-assembled in Taxco, where stone setting follows centuries-old traditions. Sterling .950 is even purer than .925: 95% pure silver, bearing Mexico's official hallmark.

The inlay technique visible in every wing — those granulated details surrounding the stone — is artisan work. Not machine solder. Every point is a choice made by the hand who set the stone. The result: a pendant that looks like no other, because craft never repeats itself.

Taxco has been the world capital of silversmithing for 500 years. That history is not mere trivia: it's why this butterfly breathes differently. When you wear an Arte Taxco piece, you carry that legacy of precision and honesty. The stone is fragile, the work is slow, but that's exactly why it matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the pendant come with a chain?
A: No. Sold as pendant only. You can use a chain you already own, or buy one separately. You have full control of length and style.

Q: What is the hallmark on silver?
A: It's Mexico's official government seal certifying silver purity. Our pieces carry .925 or .950. You'll see the hallmark stamped on every pendant.

Q: Is fire opal easily scratched?
A: It's more delicate than diamond. Avoid sharp blows and store in a case. With care, it lasts for years. If damaged, reach out — we can help.
