Created in 990 silver making this version more rare, the “Fertility” bracelet presents a complex Aztec-inspired motif in heavy-gauge silver that emphasizes powerful, heavily formed organic-looking lines. Hand-tooled overlapping X's alternate with double V scrolls punctuated by dimpled dot center beads. The look is primitive, exotic and strong. Eagerly sought by serious collectors of vintage Mexican silver, Fertility is one of the taller's most recognized designs. Put it on and sacrifice a warrior or two. The fiercely glowing patina on this piece is to die for.
