About our Artist: Marco Molina says, 'I was born in 1984 in the town of Taxco, home of some of Mexico's richest silver mines. It was natural for me to become a jewelry artisan. It all began with my grandfather, who worked in silver. He taught my father, who passed this family art on to me. Learning this craft cost me many hours of sleep. The day simply wasn't long enough, so working late became a part of my routine. Today, there are three family members working in our workshop an uncle, a brother and my father. What I like best about my art is the possibility of making something unique yet perpetual and expressing my ideas and feelings through it. It's challenging to get everything in syntony the design, ergonomics, quality, accessibility, beauty and singularity. I especially like doing the finishing by hand and monitoring the quality of each piece from start to finish.'...
