    To tell silver from silver plating, try holding a strong magnet near the item. If the magnet is attracted to the piece, it is most likely silver-plated, as solid silver is unlikely to be magnetic. You can also check the hallmarks. Markings that say silver plate, EP, EPNS, EPBM or BP indicate plating. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer evaluate the piece. Explore a large selection of silver jewelry, tableware and decorative objects on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023

    Taxco silver is the term for silver jewelry and decorative objects produced in a certain part of the world. Specifically, Taxco pieces originate from Taxco de Alarcón, Mexico, which was once home to silver mines.

Apprentices traveled to Taxco to learn from him and then remained in the region, eventually making Taxco a major producer of artisan-crafted silver pieces. Find an assortment of Taxco silver jewelry, tableware and decorative objects.
