circa 1960s Mexico REVERIANO & MARIA CASTILLO
A Mexican silversmith known by the name "REVERI."
A former apprentice of William Spratling, known as the father of Mexican silver,
he later worked as a silversmith at Hector Aguilar's Taller Borda before
starting his own brand with his wife, Maria, in 1952.
This beautiful bracelet, with its links resembling a row of small candies, is said to be from around the 1960s.
Some of you might notice it, but
the design bears a striking resemblance to the Butterfly series released by Georg Jensen in the 1950s.
I suspect they likely copied the design directly. Haha.
Mexican silver jewelry exists in a wide variety of styles, not just the tribal designs influenced by indigenous cultures,
but also many pieces influenced by the West and Europe.
It’s basically what you might call a "vintage bootleg," like those you see with T-shirts! Haha.
For those who don't mind that, or actually find it appealing, I highly recommend this piece.
The quality of silver and the high level of craftsmanship in Taxco, Mexico, are among the best in the world,
and the clasps are often even easier to use and more durable than the originals.
Wonderful Mexican jewelry. Don't miss it!
