This tiny Taxco frog captures the playful spirit of nature. The fire opal forming its bright belly shows that unique play of colors — red, orange, green, blue — that makes every opal one-of-a-kind. Hand-setting the stone requires precision so the stone breathes without breaking. It is a piece made for those who understand that luxury is not size, but detail.

.950 sterling silver, the purest after .999, guarantees durability and respect for the metal. It carries the authentic hallmark engraved. Fire opal is a living stone — its colors shift with light, as if the frog comes alive each time you wear it. Stone-setting in Taxco is a craft where every millimeter counts; no automation can replace the eye and hand of the artisan.

Taxco has been the cradle of Mexican silversmithing for 500 years — since the conquest, the silver of Guerrero has traveled the world as a symbol of inherited craft. Every pendant that leaves the Taxco workshops carries in its weight the tradition of generations. This frog is not just a piece; it is a fragment of that history of skill and passion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it include a chain?
A: No, it comes as a pendant only. It has a hole to thread through a silver chain or cord. If you need help choosing a chain, write to hola@artetaxco.mx.

Q: Why does fire opal change color?
A: Opal is a living stone with water in its structure — its colors play with light and humidity. That is its beauty. That's why you must protect it from extreme heat and dryness.

Q: Is the setting safe for such a delicate stone?
A: Yes. The hand-setting technique from Taxco is designed precisely to care for the stone without pressing it. Still, avoid hard impacts and sudden temperature changes.
