LOT NUMBER 4
Taxco suite of necklace and earrings, malachite and onyx stations, 1990s
This is a quite rare suite of necklace and earrings that come from the Taxco region of Mexico. Both comprise stations of malachite and onyx that go all the way around each piece. The stations are each individually hinged which gives these pieces a fluidity and quality that only comes from the Taxco workshops. Both have the typical box clasp and are marked 'TN-57' 'Mexico' '925'. The TN number indicates the workshop although there is no definitive list regarding the numbers attached and an exact provenance cannot be determined.Size: | Necklace is 43 cm long, 9.4 mm wide, bracelet is 20 cm long, 9.4 mm wide |
Weight: | 133 grams for both |
Date: | 1990s |
