The jewelry presented on our website comprises several different categories. The vintage Mexican jewelry is primarily from the period of 1930 through 1970. Pre-Eagle jewelry produced prior to 1948 is also represented.
The second category includes copies of vintage pieces from the period of the 1930s through the 1970s. These pieces are typically produced by silversmiths who worked for the famous designers of Taxco during the golden age of silver jewelry production. Many of the techniques utilized to produce the jewelry are difficult to find in today's world, where a great deal of the jewelry is produced in mass by machine. Care has been taken to select pieces of only the highest quality.
A third category includes original designs inspired by vintage Taxco jewelry and executed with contemporary flair. Adornments Unlimited also offers fine alpaca shawls with silk macrame fringe to complement your beautiful silver jewelry. The shawls are hand-loomed, the dyes are completely natural, and the fringe is hand-knotted.
