Up for sale is a beautiful, authentic piece of vintage Mexican artisan jewelry. This split-band ring forms the iconic Christian Ichthys (Jesus Fish) symbol, meticulously handcrafted in solid sterling silver. The center features a smooth, flush-set mosaic stone inlay composed of deep blue lapis lazuli/azurite stone accented with a metallic dot simulating the eye of the fish.

The interior of the band is fully hallmarked, featuring the official post-1979 Alphanumeric registration mark TF-02 (T for Taxco, F for the artisan's surname lineage, 02 for the workshop registration number). It also features the stacked "MEX" origin stamp, a partial 925 purity mark, and a vintage stylized Mexican Eagle assay stamp.

Condition:
Excellent vintage condition with a beautiful natural patina. The silver shows light surface wear and minor micro-scratches consistent with age, which enhances its vintage character. The stone inlay remains completely smooth, intact, flush, and securely set. Please see all high-resolution photos for a closer look at the condition and specific hallmarks.
