A Sovereign Statement Hand-Forged in 950 Silver
This exceptional statement ring, hand-forged by multi-awarded Taxco silversmith Daniel Gutierrez, carries a sovereign energy inspired by the weight and texture of ancient relics. Daniel’s imagination is etched into high-purity 950 silver, where intentional surface cracks and liquid-metal textures mimic the look of forged armor. The wide, crown-like band is designed for impact, offering a substantial feel that remains comfortable for daily wear thanks to its expert hand-beaten construction.
At its center, a luminous Australian Opal is paired with deep purple Amethyst. Beyond their visual depth, these gemstones are recognized for their emotional resonance; Opal is traditionally celebrated for sparking creativity and inspiration, while Amethyst is sought for its calming and protective qualities. This combination transforms the ring from a bold accessory into a meaningful personal talisman, grounded in the heritage of Taxco’s family workshops.
A unique detail of this piece is the presence of a historic "980" stamp alongside the "950" hallmark. This mark dates back to a period when Daniel Gutierrez experimented with ultra-soft alloys, and its inclusion here serves as a signature of his evolving craft. Forged in durable 950 silver, this ring is built for longevity, ensuring that the legacy of one of Taxco’s most celebrated artisans can be worn and preserved for years to come.

Ring Size Chart & Measurement Guide
At Nueve Sterling, my goal is to make it the go-to destination for authentic, handmade silver jewelry from Taxco—not just in Canada, but worldwide. I want to be the top choice for anyone seeking unique, artisanal pieces outside of Mexico. While this is a long-term vision, I’m deeply committed to giving back by supporting the artisans of Taxco and preserving their craft. My dream is to inspire the next generation to carry on the tradition of working with silver using time-honored techniques, ensuring this incredible cultural heritage continues to flourish.
Each piece of jewelry at Nueve Sterling is made with high-quality silver, carefully chosen for its durability and shine. Many of the designs are complemented by natural stones, selected for their unique beauty and character.
After use, gently clean your jewelry with a soft cloth to maintain its luster. To keep it in excellent condition, store it in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and harsh chemicals. Avoid exposing it to perfumes, lotions, or cleaning products.
With proper care, your jewelry will continue to shine for years to come.
