Vintage Taxco Silver Brooch
This striking brooch originates from Taxco, Mexico, and showcases a starburst design characteristic of mid-century Mexican silverwork. Crafted from sterling silver, the brooch features radiating triangular elements accented with vibrant turquoise cabochons. The design evokes both Aztec and Mayan artistic influences, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region. This piece is a beautiful example of the skilled craftsmanship for which Taxco silversmiths are renowned.
