dangle

Opening like windows into history, this pair of Mexican dangle earrings is crafted of silver, featuring circular shapes with openwork designs. Working in the style of Taxco silversmithing, Oscar Figueroa Escorcia designs the earrings, elaborating them with geometric designs inspired by Greek motifs. Natural turquoise with resin fills the silver motifs.

Artisan Monica Vazquez of Mexico hand crafts these lovely dangle earrings that feature a Talavera-style ceramic bead painted with a beautiful deep blue leaf motif with a matching crystal bead above and below. The hooks and findings on the earrings are sterling silver.

About her work, the artisan says: "I have a deep admiration and love for everything that has been done in Mexico. I love that with these designs we give women beautiful accessories and highlight Mexican craftsmanship."

Because each ceramic bead is individually handcrafted, the motifs and their placement may vary slightly, making your earrings an original work of art.

Oval disks of faceted crystal revel in iridescent tonalities. Suspended on sterling silver posts, blue Swarovski crystals take center stage in handcrafted earrings by Mexico's Alejandra Aceves.

Working in the tradition of Huichol artistry, Mexican artisan Adriana Trejo creates these beautiful dangle earrings. She strings petite glass beads by hand to create two circular shapes with beaded waterfalls below, featuring colors of blue and white.

Elaborated with blue hues of the sea, a fascinating pair of waterfall earrings is handcrafted with petite glass beads. Learning from her parents and grandparents, Mexican artisan Adriana Trejo designs this marvelous accessory. Each earring dangles from a hook of sterling silver.
