Vintage Ysidro Garcia MARICELA Taxco Mexico Sterling Silver Brooch, holiday gift

Exquisite piece of vintage jewelry crafted in Taxco, Mexico. This striking brooch features an ornate floral scroll design, meticulously detailed with swirling tendrils and small, textured accents. The silver exhibits a beautiful patina, enhancing its vintage charm and showcasing the craftsmanship. Marked with "Taxco 950", this piece is a testament to the region's rich history of silversmithing. Perfect for adding a touch of elegance to a lapel, scarf, or handbag, it makes a sophisticated addition to any outfit and is equally suited for formal events, cultural gatherings, or as a distinctive accent to everyday attire.

Made in the late 1940s to early 1950s — placing it squarely in the early years of the Maricela workshop operated by Ysidro García Piña. It's a fine example of early Taxco craftsmanship and is more collectible due to: the higher 950 silver purity, its pre-eagle mark period (ensuring it is from the 40's or 50's), and its connection to the respected Maricela workshop.
