Vintage Taxco 925 Sterling Silver Puffy Star Earrings Big Hollow Studs TO-89 Hallmarked

 These are fully dimensional puffy sterling studs, not flat stamped shapes. Each one is a sculptural dome that catches light from every angle and wears with real presence. At 1.7 inches across, they read as a genuine statement without tipping into costume territory, and because they are hollow-formed they are surprisingly light on the ear.

Hallmarked 925 TO-89 Mexico on the back. TO-89 is a registered Taxco silversmith mark, with T for Taxco, O for the maker's surname initial, and 89 indicating their registration sequence. Solid Taxco provenance, sterling confirmed. The timing for a pair of stars this good couldn't be better with the country's 250th coming up.

Condition: Estate good. Natural sterling patina, some light surface wear consistent with age and use. Dimensional form intact, no dents or repairs. Posts and butterfly backs secure.
