This pendant breathes the deep color of fire opal — intense red with golden flashes that seem alive. At 4.5 cm long, it commands presence without overwhelming; it looks elegant on a delicate chain or a bolder one. The hand-set technique leaves the craft visible: each stone was placed individually, without press or machinery, allowing light to pass through in its own unique way.

Sterling .950 is the choice of Taxco's master silversmiths when the stone is delicate and deserves maximum protection. The hallmark guarantees authenticity. This pendant sells without a chain because you choose yours: short and discreet, or long and dramatic — you decide how you wear it.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. In each Arte Taxco piece beats that legacy of craft: precision, patience, and respect for the stone. The Arte Taxco story begins in that ground of tradition.
