Sterling silver spheres sit encased within matching silver frames, creating a sculptural composition that reads equally striking from front and profile. The patina—a darkened surface layer that develops naturally over decades—enhances the dimensional geometry, a hallmark of Pineda's intentional design philosophy. Crafted in Taxco, Mexico during the mid-twentieth century, these earrings bear the hallmarks of that region's golden era of silver artisanship. The screw-back hinged closure and construction details suggest production in the 1960s, when Pineda was refining the bold, architectural aesthetic that would define his legacy. Taxco silver from this period represents a convergence of indigenous Mexican craft tradition and modernist design sensibility—a moment when the city's workshops produced some of the most innovative jewelry of the era. A rare find in original condition, these earrings retain their full hallmarks and demonstrate the confident hand of a designer unafraid of scale and weight. They reward close examination and wear equally well as a statement piece or as a study in form.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sigi Pineda","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46223345516699,"sku":"2024-215","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/9680\/7323\/files\/SigiPinedaEarringsLargeEncasedBallTaxcoSilverJewelry_4.jpg?v=1774221978","url":"https:\/\/carmelsilver.com\/de\/products\/sigi-pineda-taxco-silver-earrings","provider":"Carmel Fine Silver Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
