These 'Gleaming Gems' earrings by Guillermo Arregui are a fascinating and elegant accessory. Framed by sterling silver that gleams in the light, two cabochons of composite turquoise showcase sky blue and coppery colors. The design is a beautiful reflection of Guillermo's ability to blend his travels and life experiences with the traditions of Mexican silver.
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.
Handcrafted in Mexico from 925 sterling silver and composite turquoise, these drop earrings measure 0.7 inches in length and 0.3 inches in width. They have a high-polish finish and secure with hooks. Please note that colors may vary slightly.
