1960s Taller Maya Mixed Metal Modernist Necklace, Mexico
By Taller Maya
Located in Los Angeles, CA
A striking mixed-metal modernist necklace designed and handcrafted in Mexico in the 1960s by the renowned jewelry studio Taller Maya. This bold and sculptural piece showcases the studio’s signature use of hammered brass, copper, and patinated detailing, arranged in an interconnected geometric chain supporting a large circular pendant with richly textured, multi-tonal hammered surfaces. The necklace features alternating hammered links, copper accent rings, and round decorative medallions, all connected with Taller Maya’s characteristic hand-forged techniques. The large pendant—layered with concentric hammered textures—creates a dramatic focal point that embodies the expressive and culturally rooted aesthetic for which the studio is celebrated. The piece retains its original hallmark: “Maya” and “Mexico” Measurement: Length: 16.50 in (41.9 cm) This necklace is an excellent example of mid-20th-century Mexican modernist jewelry...
