Antonio Pineda Nova Star Cross in Sterling Silver
Renowned Taxco modernist Antonio Pineda crafted this striking Nova Star cross pendant in the mid-20th century, using 970 sterling silver for superior purity and a brilliant finish. A stunning asymmetrical synthetic sapphire accent adds a touch of vibrant blue, harmonizing beautifully with the pendant’s bold, modernist contours. Unlike natural sapphires, which may contain inclusions, synthetic sapphires are carefully cultivated to achieve the same chemical composition with flawless clarity and a luminous glow. This piece exemplifies Pineda’s signature fusion of geometric precision and masterful artistry, making it a coveted example of his mid-century modernist designs that earned him international acclaim.

Such a special brooch. I have ordered from Wendy several times and am always so pleased
Hermosa pulsera, el trabajo del artesano es exquisito. Envío perfecto, muy bien protegido y llegada puntual. Volveré a comprar en esta tienda.
Working with Wendy was a pleasure. I had purchased the wrong size of a bracelet for a gift. She returned it and sent a new size that fit my husband. She was very helpful! She is so very easy to work with, I Strongly recommend her when purchasing a product.
Exquisite jewelry pieces purchased, and excellent customer service and shipping.

I love finding special items in this shop. This sweet Calla Lily pin is absolutely perfect all around. I have a garden full of wild Calla Lilies. I picked this one out to wear for a special occasion - and after that? Well, everyday is a special occasion, right? Thank you!!
