A simple and elegant Mexican sterling silver brooch and earrings set by Carmen Beckmann of San Miguel de Allende c1960s. They have a striking swirl design that is made more dramatic by the deep oxidized channel. They are signed BECKMANN MEXICO STERLING (the two centre letters of Beckmann are missing because the brooch was stamped where the brooch raises up in the centre...). The brooch measures 1-7/8" across and the earrings (which are screw-backs) measure approximately 7/8" across. The clasp is a c-clasp with a simple but effective lift up latch to help secure the brooch next to it. The set is in excellent condition, with no cracks, dents, damage or repairs. The set weighs 30.9 grams. Surface shipping to the continental U.S. is $6 (other spots may vary) - insured is higher, and mandatory on items over $85 if paid with a credit card. Items paid with a credit card will be shipped to confirmed addresses only. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US.

A great looking, beautifully made 7-1/2" long and 1-1/4" wide Mexican sterling and 14K gold bracelet c1970s. This bracelet features a great curving pre-Columbian style, and each 1-1/4" x 1" panel has a finely tooled and different applied planchette of 14k gold, each one showing a different classic Mexican motif. This bracelet is stamped STERLING 925 0.925 D.F. and it has an eagle (also called bell) mark with the number 40, which was used by Reveriano (Reveri) Castillo - it does not have the RC mark, and it is possible someone else may have used 40 also. Reveriano Castillo worked for both William Spratling and Hector Aguilar before opening his own shop with his wife Maria. This item weighs 47.5 grams, it has a slide catch, and it is in excellent original condition with no dents, bends, corrosion, losses, damage or repairs other than that one loop linking the segments appears to have been replaced. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are secondhand and may have slight signs of gentle use. Surface shipping to the continental U.S. is $6 (other spots may vary) - insured is higher, and mandatory on items over $85 if paid with a credit card.
