ABOUT RETICULATION:
Reticulation is a process that gives the metal a texture.The jeweler has to be skilled at this technique,since a ton of heat is used to create the piece.Reticulation is a process where the metal is repeatedly heated and quenched and pickled.The technique of reticulation is a one of a kind process & you never know what’s going to happen and what happens, can never be repeated..Each piece is like a fingerprint & has it's own identity.No two pieces of reticulation are the same and even within the same piece, a pattern can be very regular, but will never have a true repeated design.This technique is extremely time consuming & takes knowledge & skill to achieve the final result!
What you get with reticulated jewelry is a fabulous textured finish & seems to make the sterling stand out like nothing you've seen before!

DESCRIPTION:
Personally,there is nothing more attractive than pure metallic silver! Metallic helps sterling to shine on a much more grander scale! This sparkles with a glittering,radiate sheen like you’ve never seen & is made with heavily textured, irregular shaped panels, that shimmer with movement! Each reticulated panel is bordered by a flattened high polished bezel & is what gives off sparkle when the light hits it.
This was given alternating panels of horizontal & vertically laid panels that are connected by soldered “O” rings on the backside.The gauge of sterling is on the lighter side & makes it very wearable.It has a 7” length & given a 1” extender.
This has a very contemporary & super classy look to it & I do trust that you will get compliments when you wear this!Makes a great gift!
If you like sets,make sure to check out the matching necklace & earrings,although this would nicely pair with any of Maria’s reticulated sterling jewelry!!(See photos or look under ‘Woman’s Jewelry’ & then click on the drop down under ‘necklaces/earrings/more earrings” category.
It is the ‘new’ look of Taxco”!
