Striking and show stopping totally describe this Los Castillo cuff. It is 2.5in. in diameter and it weighs 82 grams heavy. The face front is 2 inches tall with no dents or damage to the silver or repousse balls in the concave center. You see a tiny line of black above the inside seam but it is a line of tarnish not a split and the condition is just perfect. Hallmarked correctly as shown, eagle 15 and design number 579 A. You may see something similar to this design but they all fall short to the more rare masterful original work from Los Castillo.
The shape of this piece arcs so beautifully on the arm. The repousse is heavy and wraps all the way around with swirls encircling the deity with a headdress. The cuff weighs 73 grams and is 2.5 inches tall for a grand presence. The gap is 1.25in. and the diameter is 2 5/16th's making a very comfy fit. There is a dark natural patina on the piece and you will see many other specs dappled all over. Condition is superb and I will leave any cleaning a choice of the lucky new owner. The hallmark reads STERLING and underneath in a tiny line reads MEXICO that seemed impossible to photograph.
This magnificent clamper bracelet weighs a hefty 74 grams with the size being 4 inches long to the face front. The back tapers off to 1 1/8in. It bares a JC early hallmark as pictured. No dents or damage but there is some glare in the pictures. A beautiful example and worthy of all Mexican Silver clamper collectors.
