Artemio Navarrete

Early Taxco 980 Silver by First Silver Master Artemio Navarrete / Spratling

For those who are unfamiliar, I’ve included a bio about Navarrete below. Under Navarrete’s supervision, many of Spratling’s artists were trained and later established their own careers. His work is valued for itstechnical skill, intricate inlay work (including abalone and onyx), and heavy, luxurious construction.
