This pendant combines two ancestral Taxco techniques: handwoven filigree threads forming a geometric border, and manual stone setting of fire opal in the center. The result plays with light — every movement ignites the stone's deep green. At 3.5 centimeters long, it has just the right presence: works on a delicate chain or a bolder link, and suits anyone.

The .950 silver is purer than .925 — the choice of artisans seeking maximum durability without sacrificing flexibility. Fire opal is rare, volcanic stone, born deep in the earth millions of years ago. Here, hand-set and surrounded by flowing silver, it speaks to Taxco's story: 500 years as the world's capital of artisanal silversmithing, where each hammer strike and each solder joint are decisions no machine can replicate. The Arte Taxco tradition lives in pendants like this one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it come with a chain?
A: No — the price is for the pendant alone. We recommend 45–55 cm chains. Ask us for options that pair well.

Q: Is fire opal fragile?
A: It's a natural stone and requires care — avoid hard impacts and remove before swimming. With proper care, it will last for years.

Q: What's the difference between .950 and .925 silver?
A: .950 has more pure silver — it's more durable and brighter. Both are authentic; .950 is Taxco's premium choice.
