Matching the impressive pendant necklace by the same maker that is also available in my store, the "warrior" bracelet presented here was wrought by maestro Anton in the "mozaico Azteca" style that the Los Castillo workshop revived in Taxco's "golden Deco" years. The profile of the warrior, carefully cut out of sterling silver sheet, and the eagle that accompanies it, is set in a sea of azur-malachite. The links, graduated in size, have geometric silver inlay surrounded by blue, green, brown and taupe stone. Hefty, a bracelet for the daring female, and one that will certainly start conversations, it measures just shy of 7" long (wearable) with a width between 2" at center front and 1" next to the clasp. It weighs a whopping 87.8 grams and is signed with maker's name as shown as well as "STERLING TAXCO". The bracelet dates in the pre-1948 period and is in very good vintage condition with stunning presence, gorgeous colors in the stone inlay and nice patina. The inlay is in good shape as well with a very small area of it missing in one of the links flanking the central station. It is not readily visible because when you have the bracelet on, that area is covered by the "warrior" link but I have attached a detail photo so you can assess it yourselves. I would also like to mention some white cleaning liquid residue which has seeped into the inlay's seams but you can always remove it with a soft brush under running warm water.
