Vintage Taxco William Spratling Jewelry | Braided Sterling Silver and Copper Cuff Bracelet

William Spratling Sterling Silver & Copper Cuff Bracelet

This stunning vintage cuff bracelet by legendary designer William Spratling highlights the exceptional artistry of the Mexican Silver Renaissance. Crafted between 1940 and 1944, this piece features a bold braided chevron design of copper inlays, beautifully set in solid sterling silver. The cuff is a masterpiece of mid-century design, blending Spratling’s innovative artistry with the rich heritage of Mexican silversmithing.

Its hallmarks—“William Spratling,” “Made in Mexico,” and “Spratling Silver”—attest to its authenticity and period origin. This notable design is featured in Spratling Silver: A Field Guide by Phyllis Goddard, Kennan Tyler, and Paine (2003), underscoring its importance as a collector’s piece.

William Spratling’s jewelry is celebrated for its timeless beauty, masterful craftsmanship, and cultural significance. This cuff bracelet is a prime example of his ability to merge traditional Mexican craftsmanship with modernist design principles.
