Please read this description carefully. It will contain the information associating this magnificent piece of jewelry with the man who was responsible for the execution of so many Margot de Taxco's designs and some other masters from the "Old Taxco era" like this magnificent piece, designed by Hector Aguilar and handmade from the original molds.
Melesio Rodriguez Villalba, who worked with Margot Van Voorhies Carr for 24 years, and now, at his 74 years of age, he continues making these beautiful pieces.
