Made in Taxco:

Taxco was a lovely silver mining town located southwest of Mexico City and the center of a hand-wrought silver industry in the 1930's. 

Taxco silver jewelry production boomed during World War II because Europe was unavailable as a source of luxury goods during this time so many high-end retailers in the United States and Canada turned south of the border to meet customer demand for exceptional silver art and jewelry. 

Taxco presently has over 300 silver workshops that produce hand-made silver jewelry which is now one of the most recognized Mexican art forms.

Taxco is primarily known for its fine silver handwork and other crafts, being recognized as the outstanding center for silver work in the Western Hemisphere.
