Sculpted scrolled fronds display a fanfare of Aztec warrior feathers curving with bold ornamentation over the wrist. In Taxco's 1950's heyday, Gerardo Lopez's shop built its reputation on high quality silver, exquisite artistry and imaginative design. A superbly conceived blend of Aztec, Spanish Colonial and Art Deco design influences, this cuff exemplifies all that with show-stopping style. Glimpses of skin artfully revealed beneath the design's negative spaces hold the cuff's massive size and powerful symmetry in perfect balance. Looks stunning on.
