About the Piece:
Aguilar, a central figure in the William Spratling circle, was known for reviving pre-Columbian motifs. This piece features a repeating design of stylized gourds meticulously hand-chased into the thick silver. The superior .940 silver standard—higher than the typical sterling—combined with the substantial 108-gram weight, makes this a standout piece for collectors of Antonio Pineda, Margot de Taxco, and midcentury Mexican Modernist jewelry.
This is not just a bracelet; it is wearable art history from the golden age of Taxco, Mexico. A profound investment piece for the serious collector. -
