Sterling silver link bracelet 'Solar Frieze' This 'Solar Frieze' bracelet by Independent Artisans is an original design from Maria Belen Nilson, a designer who finds inspiration in the ornate friezes of pre-Hispanic pyramids in Mexico. The sterling silver friezes, with their oxidized accents, are separated by a blazing copper sun, creating a dynamic and culturally rich design. For Maria, silver is a vessel for passion, patience, and resilience, and each piece from her workshop carries the spirit and tradition of Mexico. This bracelet is a beautiful and meaningful accessory that honors ancient artistry while remaining a sophisticated and contemporary statement.
Born in Río Cuarto, Argentina in 1954, this designer has made Mexico her lifelong home and muse. After moving there at 21, she began teaching literature before discovering her passion for silver in the famed jewelry town of Taxco. Following her divorce, she established her own workshop to provide for her three daughters, learning from master silversmiths and drawing inspiration from Mexican culture, traditions, and the work of Frida Kahlo. Over time, she developed collections such as Mexican Drama and Texture and Purity, which explore the emotional and cultural richness of her adopted country. Today, her workshop sustains seven families, preserving techniques like lost wax, embossing, and die-cutting while maintaining impeccable quality standards. For her, silver is more than a medium — it is a vessel for passion, patience, and resilience. Guided by love for Mexico, she continues to create jewelry that carries both tradition and spirit to clients worldwide.
Handcrafted in sterling silver and copper, this bracelet measures 7 inches L x 0.5 inches W and weighs 1.13 oz. It features a combination finish and a hidden box clasp. The piece is signed by the artist.
