$8,000.00
This is an exceptional and large vintage sterling silver flatware set by Pedro Castillo of Taxco, one of the most respected names in midcentury Mexican silver. Each piece bears the “PC” hallmark, “Hecho en Mexico,” “Sterling,” “Taxco,” and the Eagle 3 mark, confirming its authenticity and solid silver content. This is the largest Pedro Castillo flatware set currently available online — a rare opportunity for collectors or hosts who appreciate the craftsmanship and sculptural quality of Taxco’s finest silver. Pedro Castillo was part of the famed Taxco silver movement that grew from the workshops of William Spratling, the American designer credited with reviving Mexico’s silver industry in the 1930s. Trained under Spratling’s mentorship, Castillo soon established his own taller (workshop) in Taxco, where he developed a reputation for refined craftsmanship and clean modernist design. The Castillo family became one of the cornerstones of Mexican silversmithing — alongside the Pineda, Los Castillo, and Aguilar families — helping to transform Taxco into an international center for mid-century design and artistry in sterling silver. Set includes (38 pieces total): 8 Dinner Forks 7 Salad Forks 8 Soup Spoons (large, deep bowls) 7 Teaspoons 8 Small Butter Knives / Spreaders Each piece displays Castillo’s hallmark clean lines and balanced modernist form — substantial in hand, beautifully proportioned, and rich with the distinctive patina of true vintage sterling.
