A striking oversized sterling silver brooch from Taxco, Mexico, dating to approximately the 1980s. Boldly sculptural and highly dimensional, the design combines a sweeping teardrop-like outer frame with a raised circular element that overlaps the upper portion, creating a dynamic interplay of geometry, negative space, and depth.
The brooch has a strong architectural quality, with clean tubular silver lines forming a dramatic open silhouette. Its substantial 3.25-inch length and three-dimensional construction give it exceptional presence when worn, while the restrained monochrome palette keeps the design sophisticated and timeless.
Marked 925, TR-113, Mexico, this piece is a fine example of late-20th-century Taxco modernist jewelry, where traditional silversmithing was interpreted through increasingly abstract and geometric forms.
The brooch has been professionally polished and presents beautifully, with a bright reflective finish. It is in excellent vintage condition with no noted damage, and the clasp functions properly.
A bold and highly wearable piece of Mexican modernist design, especially appealing to collectors of Taxco silver, geometric jewelry, architectural forms, and oversized statement brooches.
