This brooch and earrings set were originally designed by Salvador Teran of Taxco, Mexico. Salvador Teran was known for his abstract designs of Mexican art icons and this set although not signed by Salvador is true to his design aesthetic. Before establishing his own studio or taller, Salvador Teran was a silversmith for William Spratling and the Los Castillo taller in Taxco. This set is instantly recognizable as a Teran design and a great addition to your Mexican jewelry collection.
