These Artisan Crafted Copper Hoop Earrings by Independent Artisans, named 'Titania,' are a lovely design from Mexican artisan Guillermo Arregui. The earrings are crafted from gleaming copper and sterling silver mined in Taxco, Mexico, using the time-honored 'lost wax' casting method. The combination of the warm copper and cool silver creates a beautiful contrast. These hoops are a wearable piece of art that embodies both meticulous craftsmanship and the richness of cross-cultural heritage, carrying a story of travel and the vibrant traditions of Mexico.
Born in Jaén, Spain, this artisan discovered his calling after years of travel across Europe, where encounters with people, landscapes, and cultures shaped his creative vision. Settling in Mexico in the mid-1980s, he apprenticed in a silversmith’s workshop in Taxco, a town renowned for its metalwork. What began as chance soon became a lifelong passion. Cutting his own stones and designing each piece by hand, he favors turquoise and other natural gems that reflect the vibrancy of his adopted home. Over decades, he has built a workshop that trains and employs local artisans, ensuring both stability and creative growth for his team. For him, jewelry is inseparable from life’s experiences: each design carries a story, a fragment of his travels, and the traditions of Mexican silver. His work embodies both personal expression and a legacy of shared artistry.
Crafted in Mexico from copper and .925 sterling silver with a high-polish finish, these saddleback / sea catch earrings measure 1.4 inches L x 1.4 inches W.
