If you love those massive, really heavy 1930s charm bracelets that bring to mind bikers' jewelry then this piece is for you! Especially since it is accompanied by a carefully cut-out old Panamanian coin featuring the profile of Vasco Nunez de Balboa, the Spanish conquistador who first settled Panama. I believe this is a 1934 "Un Balboa" coin which was minted out of .900 silver and the detail on it is exquisite...

Early and rather rare - in all the years that I have been involved with vintage Mexican silver jewelry I have not seen another one like it - this is a bracelet with a big "wow" factor. Wide, with beautiful cut-out designs, its links are constructed in the shadow-box style which adds a dramatic sense of depth to the bracelet. Beautiful amethyst cabochons, twist-rope wire decoration and a pin closure complete the Deco marvel...

We are all familiar with Isidro Pina's Maricela book-piece brooches or his fabulous pin and earrings sets but how many times do we actually bump into a necklace bearing that signature? So you understand how thrilled I am to be presenting the necklace at hand - an absolute surrpise and breath-taking at that. But for its delicately elegant proportions, I would have expected this to be an Antonio piece or signed by one of the other modernists in Taxco...

One of Margot de Taxco's best designs, in my opinion, with its heart-shaped links adorned by ornate repousse and superb blue art glass cabochons, this is a formidable bracelet to wear and to behold. Its presence powerful, not only because of its width but also because of the veritable visual feast that it presents, I would consider it a true heirloom piece...

A classic Margot de Taxco design reflecting her acknowledgement of the fact that the Mexican Silver Renaissance's roots lay in the country's rich pre-Colombian past the cufflinks and tie clasp presented here is referred to habitually as the "Maya" design. I am impressed by the strong features and the will-power evident on the ancient face and the expressive way they have been rendered by the repoussage. Gorgeous, book-piece set; and the best about it? You can actually share it with your .....

Part of Margot de Taxco's astrology series, an adorable sterling silver pin for the daring Virgo - gorgeous casting, fantastic patina and a fluid nudity turn this little piece into a small work of art. I could not exaggerate its three-dimensional quality even if I wanted to. Its beguiling curves and the uninterrupted sense of movement in the maiden's body and hair is phenomenal. The brooch measures 1 3/4" tall by 1 1/8" wide and weighs 5.5 grams...

One of Margot's most famous designs the "Swans" comes in two forms - the one a little more stylized / minimalist than the other but both a dream to wear and behold. Just take a look at the sculpturality of the flawless repoussage in this pair; the elegant way the birds lower their head toward their chests; the profusion of detail in the feathers; and the way the patina accentuates the three-dimensional effect of the design. The earrings measure 1 3/8" tall by 7/8" wide (at their widest)...

Matching the set of sterling cufflinks that are also currently available in my inventory, a Margot de Taxco equestrian brooch in superb repousse with depth enhanced by gorgeous patina and Margot's signature quality in the design's execution. It measures 2 1/4" wide by 1" tall and weighs 12.1 grams. Fully signed with her name, a not so well stamped Eagle mark (should be Eagle 16) as well as with des. no 5160 the brooch dates in the 1950s-60s and is in excellent vintage condition.

For the lovers of vintage Mexican silver jewelry who are also lovers of equines, a gorgeous set of Margot de Taxco sterling repousse cufflinks in the shape of a horse head. I find the animal's portrait majestic - the way it holds its head allows its strength and beauty to come out in the best possible way. Each cufflink is 1 1/8" tall by 7/8" wide and the set weighs 10.8 grams. It is fully signed with Margot's name as well as with a badly stamped Eagle mark and des. no 5160...

Perfect for the summer a gorgeous Margot de Taxco silver and enamel necklace in white and tropical sea blue that combines both the guilloche and confetti techniques. A classic Margot, book-piece design masterfully executed as all of her enamel pieces that I have seen over the years. Measuring 16 7/8" in wearable length (total length is 17 3/8") it is 13/16" wide and weighs 84.8 grams. Fully signed with Margot's name, des...

I find Margot de Taxco's pectoral necklaces mesmerizing - their repousse is flawless, the design so strong and the sense of movement it creates brings the silver to life! I like to call the design here "cornucopia" because its elements remind me of the mythological "horn of plenty" that is also associated with our Thanksgiving holiday. Very easy to wear, feels perfect around the neck and is characterized by all the attributes that make Margot's jewelry so unique...

I have seen this design by Margot de Taxco before - it can be found in all silver as well as adorned with amethyst or art glass cabochons in addition to the silver and copper combination - but I had never had a ring from this line in the past. I am partial to the marrying of the two metals as it is and in this case, the complexity of the repousse with its beading and undulating tendrils and the warm glow of beautifully patinated copper make for a stunning piece...
