Margot de Taxco Mexican silver Earrings ~ des. 5337

When it comes to classy Mexican jewelry, nobody can beat Margot de Taxco. Margot had that rare, innate ability to instinctively create elegant designs which defied the whims of fashion and remain as relevant today as they did when they first became available. The set of repousse earrings presented here is, I believe, a very good illustration of what I am trying to say. I have had pieces of her des. 5337 parure many times over the years and yet whenever I discover another example, I find myself equally excited as the first time I set eyes upon it...

Size / Weight: 1 7/8" long by 5/8" wide; 12.9 grams (for the set)

Hallmarks / Date: fully hallmarked with Margot's signature as shown as well as Eagle 16 assay mark, "MADE IN MEXICO STERLING" and des. no 5337; 1950s-60s

Condition: excellent vintage with masterfully wrought repousse, beautifully glowing patina, perfectly working screw-backs, with no damage and no repairs noted
