A sterling cuff in solid hand-wrought form, this bracelet shows Los Castillo working in the clean, sculptural register where the silver itself, its weight, line, and finish, carries the design without applied stone or ornament. The cuff form is the statement.
Founded in Taxco in 1939 by the Castillo brothers, the workshop built its name on hand-made silver held to a consistent standard. A sterling cuff of this kind is among the more frequently encountered Los Castillo bracelets, and remains a staple of collections of the Taxco school.
