Emilia Castillo Silver Tea Set with Malachite Frogs, Signed Mexican Design

About the Item

An exceptional four-piece tea service set by celebrated Mexican designer Emilia Castillo, crafted in silver plate with Castillo’s signature malachite frog finials. Each piece features a hand-hammered finish, lending organic texture and artisan character. This nature-inspired set includes a generously proportioned water pitcher, creamer, sugar bowl with lid, and a matching ladle, all accented with intricately carved green malachite frogs seated atop lily pad forms. The sculptural forms and whimsical animal motifs are hallmarks of Castillo’s work and reflect the influence of the Taxco silver tradition. This set is equally suited for display or refined table service and brings a distinctive, collectible touch to any interior design project or contemporary silver collection.
