These designs speak of a spiritual dialogue between women and nature, transforming each piece into a declaration of individuality and freedom. Tita's jewelry pieces have a voice, are deeply original, and are linked to her Mexican culture.

All materials are sourced in Mexico and are worked by skilled master artisans. Every design takes hours of painstaking work to acquire the desired shape you see featured.  Each piece is part of a limited-edition series, and each is the expression of an intimate bond, ritual, and magic. With every purchase, you keep this art alive and support the talent behind these beautiful pieces.

Each design is carefully made by hand and is one-of-a-kind!

  • Size: Length - 3", Width - 2.25" 
  • Weight: 1 oz
  • Materials
    • Gold Earrings: Tumbaga gold, an alloy composed of gold and copper
    • Silver Earrings: Alpaca silver, a type of copper alloy containing nickel & zinc
  • Care Instructions: This item should be kept in a dry space when not wearing. The jewelry may develop a natural patina that can be cleaned.

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.

 

    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.
