Boma - Achantis

A silver multi-strand wire cuff (a rigid open bracelet) made using a weaving or assembly technique from multiple parallel silver wires (threads) held together by vertical and wavy smooth overlays.
This design and assembly technique ("multi-strand wire cuff") is typical of vintage Mexican jewelry from the city of Taxco, as well as ethnic pieces (such as Tuareg or Berber silver jewelry). This vintage work dates from the mid-20th century (approximately 1950s–1970s). Taxco was the world capital of modernist silver art during this period, and it was there that this recognizable multi-strand wire design ("multi-strand wire") originated.
Such authentic vintage Mexican cuffs are highly prized by collectors for the quality of the silver and the intricacy of the hand assembly.
