Dear Friends and Customers,
One Good Eye Silver is embarking on a big adventure as we prepare to move overseas. Though I am excited about our new beginning, I am also saddened for leaving after having spent almost thirty years in the US..
Until the move is completed, feel free to browse the site and email us with any questions you might have or to say “hi” but please do not try to purchase anything!
I am planning to re-configure the business and re-launch, from Europe this time, in the late Fall of 2024, if not earlier, and hope you will be patient and, once we are "live" again, honor us with your patronage.
Thank you very much for your trust all these years and for the thought-provoking conversations we have had - on jewelry, the history of personal adornment and life in general! See you again in a few months,
Margarita Poutouridou
One Good Eye Silver
Matching the set of earrings that is also available here (you can see the demi together in two of the photos) this Mexican silver and azur-malachite ring by maestro Felipe Martinez is an ode to the power of color. Striking greens and dark, rich blues delight the eye while the elegance of the sterling ring shoulders complement in the best possible way the magic of the stone…
Size / Weight: currently sz 6 or 7 US (the ring has currently a sizer that brings it down to a size 6 but without it, it is a sz 7; it can also be easily resized); face is 3/4” in diameter; 9.5 grams (with the sizer)
Hallmarks / Date: signed with workshop’s name, “STERLING TAXCO”, 7 (for size), and des. no 215 alongside Eagle 3 assay mark; 1950s-60s
Condition: very good vintage featuring an elegant design, with the azur-malachite left natural rather than being polished and a couple of very tight, short expected fissures in the stone
Inv# 15520
