The "Los Cocos" design is an iconic William Spratling design from 1937. The "Los Cocos" design was created by Chato Castillo while he was a silversmith for William Spratling for entry into the first silver design competition in Taxco in 1937. The "Los Cocos" design was designated the winner of the competition. This design has been recreated in a heavier gauge sterling with more resistance to denting which is common in the vintage pieces of this design. Additionallly, bracelets have been created in the same motif and width so that the necklace may be combined with the bracelet or bracelets for a longer necklace or even a belt. The design has a wonderful openess but yet has a definite presence.
