Vtg MIGUEL ARIAS Taxco Mexico CONFETTI ENAMEL Mexican Sterling Silver Necklace
|
DescriptionTo make this a smooth and pleasant transaction experience for everyone, all bidders need to read and understand the Description, Terms of Sale, Payment, and Shipping, below. This vintage Mexican silver necklace was created by master silversmith Miguel Arias. "Miguel Arias was among many master silversmiths working for Margot van Voohries Carr at Margot de Taxco. Many of his later pieces are crafted with the same molds he used while at Margot." --Bille Hougart, The Little Book of Mexican Silver Trade and Hallmarks, p. 22 The design is classic from the old Taxco period. Each link flows beautifully with curves and swirls resembling fern fronds and leaves. The silver links are filled with translucent turquoise enamel and multi-colored confetti enamel. The translucent enamel allows the tiny silver beads embossed on the recesses of the setting to be visible. The links also show the detail of the leaf veins in the form of sterling silver from the link settings. The back of one link is stamped "STERLING HECHO EN MEXICO" and "M ARIAS TAXCO 925" and something else, probably "GRO." It closes with a tab and box clasp. The condition is excellent. Approximate measurements: 16 1/4" long; links--1 1/2" (including connector on one side) by 7/8" Approximate weight: 78.8 grams

- Shipping occurs usually 24 to 48 hours after payment is received. If you need the item by a certain date, please be sure to let me know.
