Silver jewelry from Taxco, although made for
centuries, was revitalized in the 1930s and 40s when William Spratling,
Hector Aguilar and other famous designers turned Taxco jewelry into
a high fashion necessity.
Nuestra Tierra offers a wide selection of jewelry
that includes painstaking handcrafted replicas of classic Spratling
and Aguilar designs as well as more modern designs by contemporary
artists. Signed pieces include those by Sigi Pineda, Daniel Espinosa
and Sergio Bustamante. (Sergio
Bustamante pieces are available for purchase online).

Daniel Espinosa
Born into a jewelry making family in Taxco,
the silver center of Mexico, it is no wonder that Daniel Espinosa
began creating jewelry at the age of 17. He studied and traveled
in Italy, Holland and New York before opening his own business in
Mexico City in 1996. His contemporary designs are fashionable (he
counts Madonna and Shakira among his many well-known customers),
colorful and fun.
