A stunning, historically significant piece of early Mexican silver artistry. Weighing 7.00 grams and measuring a bold 2-3/8" long, this exquisite cross features the rare, highly collectible early phonetic "Silver Tasco" hallmark on the bale—dating the piece to the historic Pre-1945 First Design Period.


HISTORIC PROVENANCE & BENCH WORK:

• The "Tasco" Stamp: Expertly hand-stamped "Silver Tasco" on the bale. This specific spelling is the hallmark of early Taxco talleres (workshops) operating before the mid-century implementation of the eagle system and letter-number registry codes.

• Intricate Filigree: The body of the cross features magnificent, open-space filigree composed of intricately hand-formed and twisted silver wirework.

• Floral Motifs: Accented by delicate, layered floral silver flourishes that anchor the terminals and intersection of the cross beams.

• Patina & Condition: Stunning vintage oxidation remains nestled perfectly inside the filigree cells, accentuating the multi-layered depth of the wirework against the bright silver edges.


SIZING & METRICS:

• Total Weight: 7.00 Grams

• Total Drop: 2-3/8" Length (including integrated bale)
