A pendant that fits in your palm and burns with color: fire opal's multicolor brilliance glowing through geometric silver stripes in .950. At 5.1 cm long, it's delicate without fragility—perfect for those seeking character without loudness. The light plays across the stone with each movement, revealing oranges, reds, and green flashes of opal fire from within.
Every inlay is individual: a Taxco lapidary hand-places the stone in its silver frame, no press, no mold. The .950 silver (purer than .925) cradles the opal with precision. The hallmark engraved certifies true authentic Taxco silver. No machine can replicate the care in this setting.
Taxco has been doing this for 500 years: stone and silver, together. The Arte Taxco story is generations learning to listen to what the stone asks for and how silver should embrace it. Every pendant from Taxco is an artisan's decision, not mass production.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does it come with a chain?
A: No, pendant only. You can purchase a chain separately from us or use one you already own — it's ideal for personalizing your piece.
Q: What is hand-inlay stone setting?
A: A lapidary places the stone into the silver frame by hand and secures it without a mechanical press. Each stone adapts subtly to its silver surround — that's why every piece is unique.
Q: How do I care for fire opal?
A: Opal is sensitive to water and heat. Remove before showering, cooking, or sports. Store in a dry case. Clean only with soft microfiber cloth.
