This pendant captures the essence of underwater movement in pure silver. The blue fire opal glows from the fish's belly, catching light like water in motion. The fins showcase meticulous granulation work — tiny silver spheres soldered one by one — evoking the scales of a living fish. It's a piece that speaks of freedom, fluidity, and aquatic beauty, ready to become part of your daily story or a gift that lasts forever.

Sterling .950 is even purer than .925, making it softer and more workable for delicate inlay techniques. Each stone is set by hand — no presses, only the silversmith's fingers and tools — ensuring the fire opal rests safely within its silver bed. Your certificate of authenticity comes with your purchase.

For 500 years, Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silversmithing. In its workshops, where stone-setting technique is perfected generation after generation, this fish is born. It's not just a pendant: it's the silvercraft of the Arte Taxco story, condensed into 4.5 centimeters of functional beauty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it come with a chain?
A: No, this is the pendant only. You can purchase a chain separately or use your own. Most of our customers choose 45–50 cm chains for pendants.

Q: What is hand-set stone inlay?
A: Each fire opal is placed by hand into its silver bed, without machines. It's more secure and allows the stone to rest naturally within the metal.

Q: Why .950 sterling instead of .925?
A: .950 is purer and more ductile, ideal for engraving, granulation, and precise inlay work. It's slightly softer, but more malleable and workable for fine techniques.
