Amber and Sterling Silver Dangle Earrings from Mexico, "Anahuac Butterflies"

Amber was prized as a trade good by the ancient Aztecs, whose home was in the Anahuac Valley, today Mexico City. The jewellery-making Del Toro Family lives here as well, creating treasures such as these butterfly earrings with amber wings set into 925 sterling silver.

Due to the natural, organic origin of amber, please expect slight variations in colour and size. Since amber is a solidified resin, there may be remnants of plants and insect fossilized within — which only proves its authenticity.
