A pendant that plays with light. Fire Opal is a living stone — its rose and orange flashes shift with every angle, every step. This .950 silver design combines cutwork (precision-cut openings) with hand-set stone, a technique demanding patience: each stone is placed by hand, without press or machine. The result is a piece where silver cradles the natural fire of the opal.

Sterling .950 is the purest silver outside platinum — two points purer than standard .925, meaning extreme durability and unmistakable brilliance. This pendant carries Taxco's hallmark, a mark of authenticity guaranteeing metal purity. Every Fire Opal is unique; no two share the same flashes. If you seek a piece that tells a story with every wear, this is your pendant.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. Here, generations of silversmiths mastered techniques other cities never achieved — cutwork, cartoneado, filigree. This pendant is heir to that tradition. It is not mass production; it is craft. The Arte Taxco story is the story of that persistence.

A: No. The price is for the pendant alone. You can use any silver chain, gold-filled, or steel — the pendant's loop is universal.

Q: Is Fire Opal delicate?
A: It is a natural precious stone, softer than diamond. Avoid impacts, hot water, and chemicals. Store in a dry case.

Q: Is the cutwork design fragile?
A: Cutwork is high-precision, but in .950 silver (highest purity) it is very durable. The design is built to last generations.
