Taxco is a city located in the state of Guerrero, Mexico, and has a rich history of silver mining and silversmithing.

In the 1920s, an American named William Spratling arrived in Taxco and recognized the potential for creating a thriving silver industry. He established a workshop and began designing and producing silver jewelry that blended traditional Mexican motifs with modern design principles. Spratling's designs gained popularity, and soon other artisans began to follow in his footsteps, leading to the growth of the Taxco silver industry.

Today, Taxco silver is renowned for its high quality and unique designs. Many of the jewelry pieces are still crafted by hand using traditional techniques, such as hand-hammering and intricate filigree work. Taxco silver jewelry often features bold, geometric shapes and intricate patterns, and is sought after by collectors and jewelry enthusiasts worldwide.
