Mexico Antique Style Sterling Silver and Turquoise Earrings, "Love Doves"

Two sets of adorable birds come together in this lovely pair of earrings by Maria Belen Nilson. She works each bird with meticulous detail and combines them with a flower decorated with a small turquoise.

Born in Argentina, Maria Belen moved to Mexico as a young woman. After living all over the country, she moved to Taxco where she worked as an apprentice under some of the town's best-known masters. She now runs her own workshop where she creates pieces that honor the traditions of her adopted homeland.
