Vintage Taxco Sterling Silver Turquoise Inlay Dangle Earrings TS-79 Juan Sandoval Modernist Mexican Earrings

$165.00

Exceptional craftsmanship and vibrant turquoise inlay make these vintage Taxco sterling silver earrings an outstanding example of late twentieth-century Mexican silver design. The circular centers feature richly colored turquoise chip inlay accented by a geometric motif, all framed within an elegant openwork wire border that adds both texture and dimension.

Three articulated inlaid drops suspend gracefully beneath each circular pendant, creating fluid movement while echoing the geometric styling of the central design. The combination of handcrafted sterling silver and brilliant turquoise gives the earrings a distinctly Southwestern character while remaining unmistakably Taxco in both construction and artistic influence.

Marked TS-79, Mexico. Collector references attribute the TS-79 Taxco workshop registry to silversmith Juan Sandoval Vázquez of Two Trees Silversmiths, making these an appealing addition for collectors of vintage Taxco jewelry as well as those who appreciate handcrafted Mexican silver. The careful assembly, balanced proportions, and quality finishing reflect the skilled workmanship for which Taxco silversmiths have long been recognized.

Each earring measures approximately 2½ inches in overall length, including the French ear wires, with a hanging drop of approximately 2 inches. The circular pendant measures approximately 1 inch in diameter. The earrings remain in very good vintage condition with light age-appropriate surface wear, secure inlay, and an attractive natural sterling patina.
