Vintage Taxco Mexico Modernist Sterling Silver Bangle Bracelet by AEM Studio

A stunning example of mid-century Mexican modernism, this vintage Taxco sterling silver bangle bracelet was handcrafted by the legendary AEM Studio, one of Mexico's premier luxury orfebrerías - jewelry producing houses of the 1950s and 1960s. Renowned for exceptional craftsmanship and flawless execution, AEM Studio was entrusted with producing sophisticated avant-garde designs and supplied pieces to Rancho Alegre, the celebrated Taxco gallery founded by master silversmith Plácido Pérez.
Elegantly sculpted with a seamless domed design, this bracelet perfectly captures the refined, minimalist aesthetic that defined the golden age of Mexican silver design. Weighing approximately 30 grams, it offers a substantial yet comfortable feel, making it ideal for both everyday wear and special occasions.
Crafted from 925 sterling silver, the bracelet features a sturdy integrated hinge, secure slide-in box clasp, and original safety chain. The interior is stamped "MADE IN MEXICO STERLING 925" with the distinctive AEM heart hallmark and the official Eagle 23 assay mark, confirming its status as a government-assayed and quality-controlled piece from an independent master workshop.
