Very good overall condition. Minor micro-scratches and signs of wear consistent with age. Functional fastening system. Onyx in excellent condition, without cracks or chips.
A unique sculptural brooch in the shape of an electrical plug, made in Taxco, Mexico, in the 1980s. This piece of jewelry with a modernist and industrial design repurposes an everyday object to create a graphic and conceptual piece of jewelry.
The structure is made of 925 sterling silver, combined with gold-plated brass elements for a warm contrast. The end of the handle is adorned with a polished black onyx, a stone prized in Mexican jewelry for its depth and understated charm.
