About the Item

Margot de Taxco "Fish in Waves" pair of rare vintage cloisonne and enamel earrings. Lever back. Earring can also be used as a pendant if looped onto a chain. Margot van Voorhies moved to Mexico in 1937. She eventually found her way to Taxco, at the time a center for artists and bon vivants. It was in Taxco that she met and married Antonio Castillo. In 1939, Antonio established his own workshop, “Los Castillo” with Margot as principal designer, along with Jorge “Chato” Castillo and Salvador Teran. Antonio and Margot were married for 10 years. When they divorced, Margot became Margot de Taxco. She opened her own workshop in 1948. Her work remains unique – influenced by her interest in Art Deco, Mayan and Japanese motifs and her work with enamel on silver. Measures 1.75" x 1" and weighs 18 grams. CONDITION: Good condition, enamel and hardware are in good working condition. Some tarnish, rust, and scratches that are consistent with age.
