950 Silver Pendant on Leather Adjustable Cord from Mexico, "Cosmos"

Mexico's center for handcrafted silver has been, for generations, the small town of Taxco, near Mexico City. While its traditional pieces are a sight to behold, some of its younger artisans look to expand the town's repertoire. Here, 950 silver is used to create a more modern pendant, while the necklace is a brown leather cord, with allows the length to be adjusted. The pendant features an orb shape with a black oxidized dot.
