This pendant captures the essence of two worlds: the geological fire of orange fire opal and the historical depth of a pre-Hispanic coin set at its center. At 3.5 centimeters, it makes a presence when you wear it — substantial without overwhelming. The circle is perfect: a symbol of cycle, continuity, and eternity in pre-Columbian cosmology.

Crafted in authentic sterling silver .925 with its hallmark on the reverse, the setting combines precision and artisanship. Each stone is set so light travels through the opal and reveals its orange tones with every movement. The central coin is not mere decoration — it is a nod to 500 years of Taxco silversmithing, heir to pre-Hispanic craft traditions.

Taxco has been the world capital of silver since 1534. When you buy from Arte Taxco, you acquire more than jewelry — you gain the backing of five centuries of craft, of hands that know every secret of silver. This pendant is testament to that legacy.
