Rooted in the rich silversmithing tradition of Taxco, Guerrero — Mexico’s legendary silver capital — these arracada earrings are a timeless expression of Mexican artisanal craft. Each pair is handmade by a skilled platero, honoring a tradition passed down through generations.
The Arracada
The arracada is one of Mexico’s most iconic jewelry forms — a distinctive hoop style with deep pre-Hispanic and colonial roots. Worn for centuries by women across Mexico, these earrings carry cultural significance as much as they do beauty.
The Silver
Crafted in .925 sterling silver, each piece showcases the hallmark techniques of Taxco artisans: intricate hand-finishing, refined detailing, and a luminous polish that highlights every curve. No two pairs are exactly alike.

Beautiful and well made; unlike Mexican earrings of the old days
Beautiful and well made; unlike Mexican earrings of the old days, they are a bit lighter even though they look substantial. Not quite like their picture…but OK, still lovely.
