These 'Stylized Jaguar' button earrings by Ángel Ortiz are a fierce and beautiful accessory. Crafted from sterling silver, the button earrings depict the stylized faces of two jaguars, with intricate oxidized patterns that decorate each earring. The design is a beautiful blend of traditional Taxco handicrafts and Ángel’s dedication to raising awareness of endangered species. These earrings are both a cultural legacy and a call to action.
Mexican jewelry designer Ángel Ortiz inherited his love of silver from his mother and has honed his craft since 1986, studying at UNAM’s School of Fine Art and working in the renowned silver city of Taxco. His designs draw inspiration from Mexican culture, nature, and the people he loves, blending traditional silversmithing with contemporary techniques. While silver remains his foundation, he also experiments with copper, tumbaga (a pre-Hispanic gold-copper alloy), alpaca, crystals, seeds, and leather. Today, Ortiz is dedicated to creating collections that raise awareness of endangered species, combining artistry with environmental advocacy. For him, jewelry is both a cultural legacy and a call to action. Living and working in Mexico City, he trains apprentices and cultivates a new generation of artisans, ensuring the craft endures. Passionate, reflective, and deeply committed to his community, Ortiz sees each piece as a balance between trend and tradition—a way to preserve Mexico’s artistic heritage while speaking to the future.
Handcrafted in Mexico from 925 sterling silver, these button earrings measure 0.5 inches in length and 0.6 inches in width. They have a combination finish and secure with posts.
