A large sterling and brass handmade vintage 1950s 60s modernist bracelet designed by Chato Castillo for Los Castillo in Taxco, Mexico. The bracelet centers a large tear-drop shaped obsidian stone at top. The stone is prong-set with the characteristic curling prongs used by Los Castillo during this period. Signed inside band as shown in the photo, "Los Castillo Taxco" with the Eagle 15, and "Hecho en Mexico". The only example of this design that I have seen, though I have seen many similar.

A huge Los Castillo 1950s mixed metal and obsidian modernist bracelet.
