Mexican modernist masterpiece bracelet cuff dating from the high modernist, circa 1980s era. A breathtaking marriage of mid century structural modernism and organic brilliance. Crafted in Taxco, Mexico by master silversmith TR-164 in the historic epicenter of avant garde silversmithing, this substantial, vintage hinged cuff is a testament to the era of bold, architectural adornment.

Chunky three dimensional DNA beads adorn the piece in an even balance nature.
