    I spent many years traveling back and forth to Taxco for Silver Jewelry. I worked and traded with Antonio Castillo and visited the ranch many times. Great memories.I also Enjoyed the Spratling Ranch and the jewelry that was produced there too.

    I had no idea things other than jewelry was made here, all of it's beautiful, the decanters and the silver on porcelain blew my mind! I could go on about it all day!
    I have one cuff necklace that's curved to the shape of your neck, it twists in the center so if you stretched it out it would be an elongated tapered infinity symbol. The markings say T?-115 Mexico 925. I can't tell what the ? letter is, it could be another M or an H, no luck yet on google but I'm not done.
    I'd love to tell the artist I love it so much I wear it almost every day!

    A beautiful town. Fun I can just spend a long time there
    The creative artist are the best I think world wide
    The only silver I'm not allergic.
    And the beautiful Jesus on top of the mountain I believe has a lot of healing powers.
    Can wait to go again

    Spratling was an amazing guy. For me, I like silver that is rhodium plated or oxidized. I hate polishing silver.
