Vintage Taxco Mexico Sterling Crushed Turquoise Mosaic Butterfly Pin NR196

Description

Vintage Taxco Mexico sterling silver inlay crushed turquoise mosaic butterfly pin.
It is marked 925 Hecho en Mexico.  It also has an older Taxco hallmark.  It is 1/2" long along the wings and roughly 1" wide.
Total weight 4.82 grams.  Some patina. The pin back is missing the closure catch (photo #4)but it seems to hold very well without.  I wore it all day yesterday and it held securely.
Ring boxes and other display pieces are not included.
The
items I list are pre-owned.  Some are vintage or antique.  They may not be perfect but I will describe to the best of my ability.
Ask questions!
My sterling silver jewelry and items are pre-owned and pre-loved.  Older quality silver offers a soft patina that is warm and unique to the history of each individual piece.  There may be light surface scratches but that is normal for silver.  I do my best to describe the items.  However, I occasionally miss something.  Questions are always welcome.
I believe that all problems can be resolved if the buyer communicates with the seller.  It is EBAY's posted policy to contact the seller before leaving negative/neutral feedback.   Negative/neutral feedback neither helps nor resolves problems.  It is permanent and damages the reputation that we strive so hard to establish.
