A friend recommended that we see a show of Mexican silver at the International Folk Art Museum. I was prepared to yawn, & wow, was I wrong. Silver Seduction: The Art of Mexican Modernist Antonio Pineda is an extraordinary show of 200 pieces of jewelry. His work is elegant, graceful, original & modern, even from our perch in the 21st century. Pineda was a leader of the Taxco School of Mexico & internationally renowned . I found a few examples on the Internet, but they hardly do the show justice. His work is delicious.

very industrial looking, this one at least.
Most of it is much more graceful, but haven't found good photos.
