Modernist Silver and Obsidian Pendant Necklace from Mexico 'Lunar Obsidian'

Ezequiel Tapia, born in Taxco de Alarcón, Mexico, grew up surrounded by the art of jewelry-making in his father’s lapidary workshop. From an early age he absorbed traditional techniques such as embossing, later expanding his skills through courses in contemporary design. Although he trained as an industrial mechanical engineer and briefly pursued another career path, his passion for jewelry ultimately brought him back to Taxco, where he combined silver with stones to create original designs. Working primarily in 925 silver, sometimes accented with 14k gold, pearls, and semi-precious stones, Tapia draws inspiration from nature, architectural forms, and cultural motifs ranging from pre-Hispanic to Egyptian. Today, jewelry-making is a family tradition, with his wife and sister-in-law supporting production and quality. Deeply committed to his craft and community, he aspires to share his creations worldwide, blending heritage with modern artistry while providing opportunities for local artisans.

Handcrafted in Mexico from 925 sterling silver and obsidian, this necklace is 15.8 inches long with a 2.4-inch extender. The pendant measures 1.6 inches long by 1.2 inches wide and features a high polish finish and a spring ring clasp.
