The bean backs are designed with a swirling pattern that mimics the waves of the front faces...

The necklace at hand is an example of the narrower versions but very well made and with good weight to it...

The massive, early Taxco combination pin / pendant with the carved stone “mask” at hand is crafted in high purity, .980 silver with overlay, beading and oxidation...
