Masterfully executed repousse necklace and earrings set, wrought in 980 silver, this is an great example of the quality and craftsmanship that came out of early Taxco. To my eyes the ribbed links (riveted at the back!) look like the scales covering Quetzalcoatl's - the feathered serprent's - body. They overlap perfectly and curve to hug the neck while positioning themselves in the best possible way to showcase their maker's mastery over his craft...

Impressive, having the distinct "ethnic" character that characterizes this genre of vintage Mexican jewelry, a set of articulated earrings by Rivera in emulation of Matilde Poulat's jeweled creations. Beading, wire work, amethysts and turquoise set in channels and bezels combine to make this truly regal set. Dating in the pre-1948 period (I believe Rivera's early pieces to be among the best alternatives to Matl's own work) the set is signed with maker's name as well as "HECHO EN MEXICO 925"...

This gorgeous band or ring is contemporary but in the style of the Art Nouveau movement.

Not much is known about Gerardo Lopez yet his jewelry bespeaks the man's talent, exceptional craftsmanship and the pride he must have taken in his creations. I wrote in my description of the 980 pectoral necklace that is also available in my inventory (please look for Troc item no 1188446) that I suspect he must have had some association with either the Los Castillo or Margot de Taxco talleres; maybe even with both...

ON HOLD. Vintage modernist unsigned, tested sterling silver hammered forged necklace with odd size links & 3 light blue ceramic beads on 3 hammered paddle drops. Does this not have a vague ish Fannie Hillsmith ish look to it? Nearby NH is lucky to have had a modernist artist such as Fannie Hillsmith living there. The Free earrings have same ceramic beads and appear to have been made using fancy sterling clips marked: "Ster. Pat. 1967965" representing the years 1934 to 1935...

Fun and fanciful!Miriam Haskel has used glass beads, pink iridescent crystals and tiny rhinestones to create this bracelet. It can be worn at the wrist or further up the arm. It is old Haskell with the horseshoe mark (visible in the enlargement) placing it most probably in the 1940's. Expands to fit any size.
