These 950 Silver Eclipse-Inspired Button Earrings from Mexico 'Penumbra' are a finely crafted pair by Israeli-born artisan Alon Diller. Created in her adopted country of Mexico, these earrings beautifully capture the minimalist beauty of a solar eclipse. The high-polish 950 fine silver creates a striking contrast between a polished circular piece and a slightly offset, textured disc, evoking the moment of "penumbra." They are a perfect example of how she transforms traditional forms into contemporary statements, making them appropriate for every occasion.
Born in Israel, this globetrotting artisan cultivated her love of jewelry while traveling through Africa and the Americas, experimenting with natural and found materials such as seeds, bamboo, ceramics, and bone. In 1995, she arrived in Mexico and fell in love with its vibrant artisanal traditions, eventually discovering Taxco, the country’s renowned jewelry capital. There, she enrolled at the National University (UNAM), where she studied design, art history, lapidary, engraving, and silversmithing, graduating in 1999. Her collections, celebrated throughout Mexico, reflect her unique style, characterized by geometry, textures, and contrasts. She embraces jewelry as a form of personal expression, transforming traditional forms into contemporary statements while always seeking beauty and elegance. For her, jewelry is both art and storytelling, a medium through which she shares her experiences and perspectives. Each piece is a renewal of tradition, carrying her signature mark of individuality.
Handcrafted in Mexico, these earrings are made from high-polish 950 fine silver. They measure 0.5 inches L x 0.5 inches W and secure with post clasps.
