Mexico Taxco TC 49 Sterling Silver Bracelet with Turquoise Inlay 7 5
This classic vintage Taxco panel bracelet embodies the iconic mid-century Mexican aesthetic that has made these pieces enduring collector favorites. Stamped TC-49 and crafted in sterling silver, the bracelet is composed of a series of rectangular flat panels linked together so they articulate smoothly around the wrist, finishing at a wearable 7.5-inch length. Each panel is decorated with crushed turquoise inlay set into recessed channels that form bold, stepped geometric motifs, a stylized Greek-key or Aztec-inspired fret pattern that flows continuously from link to link. The technique, in which finely ground turquoise is blended with resin and inlaid into the carved silver designs, is a hallmark of Taxco production from the 1950s through the 1970s, prized for its vivid robin's-egg blue against the polished silver ground. The panels alternate the directional fret design, giving the bracelet rhythmic visual movement and a striking southwestern flair. A secure tongue-and-box clasp at one end keeps it fastened on the wrist. Visible condition is very good for its age: the turquoise inlay remains well filled and richly colored across the panels with only minor expected wear, while the sterling shows a warm patina and light tarnish in the recesses that accentuates the geometric lines. The links are intact and the bracelet retains its flexible, comfortable drape. Collectors and buyers are drawn to vintage Taxco turquoise-inlay jewelry for its bold graphic patterns, genuine sterling content, authentic Mexican hallmarks, and the way it pairs effortlessly with both bohemian and modern wardrobes. This bracelet offers excellent representative styling, a substantial wrist presence, and the timeless turquoise-and-silver color story that defines collectible Taxco craftsmanship, making it a versatile and desirable estate piece.

What Our Clients Say About Us
I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)
Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.
This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
Can't recommend Danny's vintage watches enough!!! My first Omega ever and im in love have been wearing every day since I purchased it. Danny's shop is a must visit if you are in NYC looking for a watch!!!
