ANOTHER Bad Ass Silver Bracelet made by Nacho

This piece is inspired by Antonio Pineda- yet another Taxco Master Designer/Metalsmith. Both Nacho and his father Filliberto made jewelry for Pineda...The craftsmanship on this piece is really unbelievable !

Scorpion Bracelet with 'Tiger Eye' Stone

Another scorpion bracelet made by Nacho - this time with a gorgeous Tiger Eye gemstone as the focal point. Tiger Eye represents optimism, peacefulness and clarity. This is not a bracelet to be worn out in public if you don't like receiving attention. Truly stunning- a powerful piece !

Rattlesnake Bracelet- One of a Kind

Nacho made this bracelet as a custom order for a friend of mine who owns a restaurant in Austin. It's called Ranch 616 and if you've never eaten there you don't know what you are missing! The sign for the restaurant is a rattlesnake that spells out its name, hence the concept that Nacho worked with to complete this very special piece.

This creative piece made by Nacho looks as good on a human wrist as it does on a Palm Tree in the middle of the Texas Summer !

Scorpion Bracelets with Rutilated Quartz

These two scorpion bracelets are AMAZING ! Nacho and his brother Arturo went to a mountain where they often go to hunt and camp. They captured a scorpion close to this size by pouring gasoline into the nest. When the scorpion came out to investigate he became their prisoner - to be used as a model for these bracelets (by Nacho) and to be cast in metal (by Arturo) using the lost wax method. I especially love the movement of the bracelet and it fit snuggly on my wrist. Almost lifelike- UFFFF !!!!

Lobster Bracelet

This is the first and only lobster bracelet that Nacho has ever made. He designed it by using a real(frozen) model! Eek !The bracelet is huge and the movement is incredible. Hinged joints make it (almost) come to life !

Horse Bracelet

This stunning bracelet is just another example of what a fantastic metalsmith Nacho is - It really shows off his skills in sculpture. Every detail is so interesting- I especially love the expression on the horse's face !
