The form reinterprets the tongue — a symbol we found throughout pre-Hispanic codices, where it stands for speech, knowledge and human connection — and lets it fall from the ear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach earring is made from two die-stamped pieces of sterling sheet, soldered together into a hollow form using \u003cem\u003ecartoneado\u003c\/em\u003e, the technique Taxco has practiced for generations. It's what gives them volume without weight: they look substantial and weigh almost nothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo stone.
