Chic Catrina Sterling Pendant Necklace with Turquoise

Length: 17.75"

Oscar Figueroa Escorcia

(704)

Sporting dangly earrings of natural turquoise, this Catrina is glamorous. The talented Oscar Figueroa Escorcia in Mexico crafts this original pendant necklace from Taxco sterling silver, with oxidized areas enhancing the detail. The pendant centers a sterling cable chain.

The original "La Calavera Catrina" was a zinc etching created by the artist José Guadalupe Posada in Mexico around 1910. Posada created the character, a female skeleton with an elegant hat, as a satirical portrait of Mexican natives who aspired to European style and denied their own heritage. The catrina has since become an emblem of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration and a popular folk art subject.

Sterling silver cuff bracelet, 'Skeletal Hat Dance'

Aurora Leos

Oct 25, 2021

An incredible work of art!

This handcrafted cuff bracelet just arrived today. I can truly say the photo of this item does not do it justice. When I first opened the package my first thought was "WOW!" Such detail! The design is so spectacular! I couldn't wait to slip it on... Roy Nilson craftsmanship is a pleasure to behold. I especially loved the composition of the dancing couple. Viewing them puts a smile on my face! They are so precious! But most of all I love the passion Mr Roy put in his creation. I can see the love for his culture through his art. My family is from Mexico, as well. So I can relate to his passion.... This is one of three items I purchased from him, and I plan to purchase more in the future. Needless to say, I've become a huge fan. Mr Roy, thank you for the honor to ware your gorgeous artwork!
