Swimming-Fish Bracelet with Blue Enamel, Design No. 5644

Design 5644 is one of the numbered enamel models in Margot de Taxco's catalogue, the figure designating it within the workshop's inventory (Morrill, pdf p. 15). The high number marks it among her later designs.

The bracelet's color is sealed into the silver by the champlevé enamel she perfected into one of her major lines, first initiated at Los Castillo by Reveriano Castillo and Miguel Melendez (Morrill, p. 166). Margot supplied written instructions for each design, fixing the dies and color choices (Morrill, p. 168).

A bracelet of this design surfaces only occasionally.
