A stunning tiger eye and sterling bracelet with matching earrings by Felipe Martinez who opened his workshop "Piedra Y Plata" in 1950. The surface of the S shaped stones is smooth and highly polished and impeccably fused into the silver. The design beautifully combines movement, line and color. This bracelet,c.1955, is featured in the Morrill book MEXICAN SILVER on page 189 with a green variegated stone rather than tiger eye. Measuring 7" end to end and 1" wide, this piece is in beautiful original condition and weighs 64 grams. The earrings are screwbacks and measure 1 1/4" long and 3/8" wide. The tiger eye stones are truly magnificent and free of any chips or cracks. Both the earrings and the bracelet are signed for Martinez, Piedra Y Plata as shown in the photos. A rare and superb set that is a testimony to the artistry of this silversmith.
