Taxco · Crafts & Artisan Experiences

Taxco's steep cobblestone streets host over 300 silver workshops ranging from small family operations to larger ateliers. Watch silversmiths use traditional Mexican techniques including stone-setting with turquoise and obsidian, repoussé metalwork, and intricate filigree. The Casa Humboldt and William Spratling Museum document the town's silver heritage, while workshops throughout offer classes in jewelry-making and silversmithing fundamentals.
