Amethyst and Sterling Silver Cocktail Ring From Taxco Mexico, "Amethyst Lock"

Silversmith Ezequiel Tapia loved being and working in his father's jewelry workshop since he was a child growing up in Taxco, Mexico's famous silver jewelry center. After learning all he could from his family, he went on to learn new techniques in classes. Here, he makes a bold statement with the square-cut amethyst and sterling silver ring and bolt-like setting.
