Signed Antonio Reina Sterling Floral Brooch and Earring Set
This magnificent vintage sterling brooch and earring set from Taxco, Mexico is attributed to master silversmith Antonio Reina, who worked for a time in the studios of Margo von Voorhies Carr (Margo de Taxco), as well as making pieces with his own stamp. The fabulous stylized floral design features a wide, raised border with darkened interior, which shows the details of this exquisite design beautifully. The matching earrings were converted to post by the previous owner. This set is in excellent condition. It has many signatures, including AAR, Hecho en Mexico, 925. Broche Alpaca, Sterling, Taxco, the Eagle with a 3 ( for Taxco) and the number 72. Sets from this designer are not often found!
