Mexico has a rich tradition of silversmithing that dates back to ancient times and remains relevant to this day. The silversmith guild in Mexico played a crucial role in trade, as both objects made of silver and silver-plated ones are highly valued. Since the colonial era, Mexican silversmiths produced masterpieces of art and craftsmanship that reflected both indigenous heritage and European influences. Mexican silverwork became a symbol of status and wealth, and its significance in trade and culture persists today.
Silver objects and silver-plated objects are distinguished by the material they are made of. Silver objects are genuinely made of silver, while silver-plated objects are made of a base metal like copper or alpaca, coated with a thin layer of silver. The key difference lies in the amount of silver present.
