Los Castillo
Antonio Castillo and his brothers Jorge, Miguel, and Justo began Los Castillo in 1939. They had all apprenticed in William Spratling workshop before starting their own business in Taxco, Mexico. Antonio Castillo rose to the level of master silversmith during his time working with Spratling. The Los Castillo workshop trained and employed many skilled silversmiths over its decades in the business, including the Castillo brothers’ cousin Salvador Teran, Sigi Pineda, Antonio Pineda, and Antonio Castillo’s wife, Margot van Voorhies Carr. All these artists went on to open their own successful workshops, including van Voorhies Carr who founded Margot de Taxco after she and Antonio Castillo divorced. Los Castillo is known for its quality silver wares as well as mixed metals that incorporated copper and/or brass with sterling silver. Other decorative home accessories can be found with silver plating and inlaid stone embellishments. Antonio Castillo’s daughter Emilia learned silversmithing at an early age and had much success in the field, creating silver jewelry and decorative arts even before her father’s passing in 2000. Her work was first sold at Neiman Marcus in Dallas in 1990. Her daughter, Cristina, has followed the tradition by training in the family’s Taxco workshop located on her late grandfather’s ranch.
