Rare Stamped Tequila Abalone Necklace

$99.00
Sterling Silver vintage necklace chain featuring a large, open-circle pendant inlaid with colorful abalone shell. This is a fascinating and unusual stamp for a piece of jewelry, and it most likely means that it's Regional Mexican Destination Mark. While Taxco is the absolute center for silver crafting, Tequila (located in the state of Jalisco) is also a massive tourist destination in Mexico. It is highly probable that a silver workshop stamped this piece with "Tequila" specifically to be sold as a souvenir or local trade piece in Jalisco boutique shops to travelers visiting the historic town. SIZE: 18" This piece is pre-owned. Most pieces are one-of-a-kind and cannot be replaced. We will provide as much information as possible about the item's condition, including additional pictures if needed. Due to the nature of antique and vintage items, there may be blemishes, nicks, or other imperfections as expected with age and use. All items are sold “As Is”. *Vintage pieces are pre-owned
