About the Item
A striking set of four vintage tumblers by Villa, Taxco, crafted in brass with interiors silver plated and exteriors inlaid with shimmering abalone shell. Each cylindrical cup is adorned with three horizontal bands of abalone mosaic, framed by polished brass rings. The luminous, iridescent shell contrasts beautifully with the warm brass and the cool silver interior.
Stamped on the base: Villa Taxco, Platerado, Latón, confirming their origin in the renowned Mexican silversmithing region of Taxco and the mixed-metal composition.
