About the Item
A striking hand-hammered silver-plated copper bowl by Emilia Castillo, featuring the artist’s signature fusion of natural materials and refined craftsmanship. The gleaming, textural surface showcases Castillo’s renowned silversmithing artistry, accented by a sculptural rope motif threaded through malachite-inlaid rings along the rim. The bowl rests on a circular base banded with malachite, adding a rich green contrast to the luminous silver finish.
Castillo’s work, rooted in the artisanal traditions of Taxco, Mexico, blends organic inspiration with modern elegance. This piece exemplifies her attention to texture and material interplay—equally functional as a decorative centerpiece or as an art object for display.
The interior shows warm evidence of its copper understructure, adding to the authenticity and handmade appeal. An exceptional example of Emilia Castillo’s luxurious mixed-metal designs, this piece embodies timeless sophistication and craftsmanship.
Emilia Castillo is the daughter of Antonio Castillo, one of the four founding brothers of Los Castillo, the legendary Taxco silver workshop established in the 1930s. Los Castillo became internationally celebrated for its innovative use of mixed materials—silver combined with copper, brass, and semi-precious stones—and for collaborations with artists such as William Spratling.
Emilia inherited this artisanal legacy, establishing her own studio in Taxco in the late 1980s. Her work now in jewelry continues the family tradition of fine metalcraft while introducing a more organic modern aesthetic, blending silver-plated copper, natural stones, and hand-hammered textures in sculptural, contemporary forms.
