A silver filigree basket pendant in red, made by the Salgado Téllez Sisters in Santa Cruz Xoxocotlán, Oaxaca. The basket — the chiquihuite — is a form of deep cultural significance in Oaxacan daily life, the vessel for markets, offerings, and the transport of everything that sustains a family. The sisters transform it into jewelry through their mastery of filigrana: fine silver wire worked into an open, airy structure that is both faithful to its source and entirely its own.
