Description

Experience the artistry of the Los Castillo workshop with this stunning dish, measuring 5 3/8 inches in diameter and weighing a substantial 149 grams. Crafted using the unique 'Metales Casados' technique, this piece combines sterling silver, brass, and copper, adorned with a captivating mosaic inlay of crushed stone, likely lapis lazuli and malachite. The modernist design, inspired by pre-Columbian motifs, captures the essence of Taxco silversmithing. The dish is stamped with the Los Castillo mark and the Eagle 3 assay mark, symbolizing its authenticity and collectibility. While the surface shows signs of age with fine to moderate scratches and tarnish, and a few small dark spots may be present, the crushed stone inlay remains intact.
