EXCERPT FROM THE ARTICLE FOR 'THE JEWELLERY EDITOR':

By Maria Doulton

"TANE is a well-known name in Mexico and the go-to place for the most elegant silverware and jewels.  Best known for its clean lines, often inspired by pre-Hispanic designs and the ancient crafts of Mexico, the workmanship at TANE is second to none. Founded in 1942, the firm has resolutely continued to make silverware and jewels of the highest quality, all with a unique, unmistakeable style.

Which is why those in the know, including Queen Sofia of Spain, come here for a very elegant memento of the best of Mexico. From woven silver baskets to hand-hammered cutlery and the soaring forms of monumental silver jugs, the Tane look is strong and confident...."

The quality and excellence in the historical timeline of modernist jewelry design and silversmithing in North America is strongly recognized with TANE TALLER, MEXICO CITY  jewelry . It is actively sought after and participates in a strong collectible market. We have listed the few pieces we have left in our collection and they are nothing less than stellar examples of the era;  of modernism in silversmithing and in the unique and creative skill and excellence found in the work of these masters in these arts collectives. Just the incredible handmade chain is amazing.  This pendant can also be worn on a neckring, to grand modern ease and effect. Huzzah!

Tiger's eye (also called tiger eye) is a chatoyant gemstone that is usually a metamorphic rock with a golden to red-brown colour and a silky lustre.  I have always thought malachite and tigers eye were under appreciated . SUCH lovely stones, I promise folks will comment.

TIGERS EYE STONE : to balance the soul, alleviate anxiety, and restore confidence. This stone is used to increase wealth and vitality. Tiger's Eye brings protection against negative energy and strengthens self-worth.
