Taxco Silver Rings

113 items

Explore NOVICA's Taxco Silver Rings Collection. High in the Sierra Madre Mountains, Taxco silversmiths made gifts for the Aztec gods long before the Spaniards arrived; but it took the persistant vision of American architect William Spratling, credited with fathering the modern Mexican silver movement, to put Taxco on the jewelry collector's map. Spratling's vision lives on in the amazing handmade silver rings created by talented Taxco Jewelry artisans.

This is my new wedding band

I was trying to find a replacement for my wedding band that had been damaged and this is the one that I chose. I couldn't be happier with it, and it has been holding up very well over the past year. Thank you!

Simple, but Beautiful

Always ring is a modern, simple design that looks beautiful when worn. The stone is a good color. I wear it with a very narrow, simple designed bracelet with the same type of stone (rectangular shape) by a different Novica designer and it's a good match because the ring, though larger, does not display a lot of silver. Ring is solid well made.

Taxco Silver Rings

Taxco native and acclaimed silversmith Oscar Figueroa Escorcia sheds light on the complex process each silver ring featured in his collection undergoes before it can be purchased. "After the design is complete, the process begins with the melting of pure silver that is purchased in small grains, forming an alloy with a minute amount of copper to give the metal a better consistency and to be able to work with it,” He says. "Once the metal is melted and transformed into a sheet, it is passed through a laminator to make wires, cases, etc. When we have the metal and it is ready to be worked, the designs are placed on certain areas of the sheets. They are cut, then sanded on all sides.” Oscar then submerges the pieces in nitric acid to clean the silver, which turns them white. Afterwards, if the designs require stones, he sets and adjusts them according to the designs. Finally, the pieces are polished by hand with cotton cloths, which gives his Taxco sterling silver rings that mirror finish. Find the silver ring that speaks to your sense of style and cherish your authentic piece of Taxco culture forever.
