Description
Antonio Pineda (1919-2009) Taxco Modernist Sterling Onyx cufflinks 18mm square,<br>19.9 grams. Antonio Pineda (1919-2009) Pineda’s jewelry is especially known for<br>its elegant acknowledgment of the human form. It is often said that a Pineda<br>fits the body perfectly, that it feels right when it is worn. So, for example, a<br>thick geometric necklace that might at first glance seem too weighty or rigid to<br>wear comfortably is, in fact, faceted, hinged, or hollowed in such a way that it<br>gracefully encircles the neck or drapes down the décolletage. In addition, no<br>other taxqueño jeweler used as many costly semiprecious stones or set them with<br>as much ingenuity, skill, and variety as did Pineda. Only the most talented of<br>silversmiths could master.
