A pendant that tells stories. The Aztec Calendar — the most recognized symbol of prehispanic civilization — emerges from Taxco's silversmithing art in pure silver. The relief of the piece captures each glyph of the calendar with precision, while the blue fire opal set around the perimeter adds movement and light. Every time you wear it, you carry five centuries of silver-making tradition and 700 years of Aztec mysticism.

Authentic sterling silver .925, marked with the hallmark (purity standard). The calendar engraving is hand-set work — every line, every detail was placed individually in Taxco. The fire opal is not just any stone: its blue-green color is natural, unique, and each piece shines differently in the light.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for five centuries. Since the Spanish arrived in the 16th century, the silversmiths of this city have perfected techniques that are today living heritage. Every pendant that leaves Taxco is a direct connection to that tradition — the story of Arte Taxco is the story of that living craft.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it include a chain?
A: No, pendant only. The chain is sold separately, so you can choose the length and thickness you prefer, or use one you already have. Questions? Write to hola@artetaxco.mx.

Q: What exactly is the combined technique?
A: Casting (the calendar relief) + hand-setting of the fire opal. This gives us precision in detail and ensures each stone is individually secured.

Q: Is opal fragile?
A: Opal is more delicate than some other stones. Avoid hard impacts, chlorine, and extreme temperature changes. With normal care, it will last a lifetime — and if your style changes someday, the Lifetime Buyback Program will buy it back.
