“Jewels by Tono”, the signature found on the figural Mexican silver and carved amethyst brooch at hand, is one of Antonio Pineda’s early hallmarks.

Yet interestingly enough the face itself betrays Mexican origins, its features exactly the same as those of carved stone “masks” set in classic Taxco jewelry from its “archeolog...
