About the Technique

For this collection, Tita worked with two artisans, a goldsmith, and a welder. The skilled artisan uses an artisanal method that has been passed down for generations: martillado. This technique requires the artisan to use hammers of different shapes, sizes, and weights, depending on the alloy, the object's size, or the work phase. In addition, stone chisels are used to outline and adorn the object's final shape.

About Tita López

Tita López is a multifaceted artist who dedicates her time to art and jewelry design. Inspiration to create each piece is born from her paintings and art pieces intertwined in singular harmony. Tita uses the natural forms of quartz, a pure element of nature; each piece is hand carved through artisanal ways dating back to pre-Columbian times, considering that they are unique pieces with all their qualities intact. The objective is to maximize the artisanal method using local products such as quartz and silver and combine it with designs inspired by the mysticism of Mexican culture, fusing tradition and art.
