$69.00

  • Details
    Antique 5 point leaf Stamped Mexico. Unique Beautiful, and large size. Mexican silver jewelry and silver jewelry in general goes well with today’s casual lifestyle. You can wear it with a T-shirt but the designs look sophisticated enough to pair with a business suit. The various designs of Mexican jewelry lean away from redundancy, with diverse themes ranging from Aztec influenced designs, both abstract and figurative, to influences of the Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern movements.
    Then there is the intrinsic beauty of silver, malleable and mold-able with its subtle luster that becomes reflective when shined, and deepens as its patina ages. Niello (intentional darkening) enhances and emboldens its depth, and semi-precious stones serve as accents or as the focus of these little works of art.
    Silver content affects the beauty of these pieces because the higher the amount, the softer and richer the luster which obviates the need or inclination to polish it. Content higher than sterling (925), in particular 980 out of 1,000 parts, was favored by Spratling and became the benchmark for identifying older pieces, although the use of higher silver content has experienced some resurgence in recently created pieces.
