If I had one piece of Mexican silver that I would consider "iconic", it would be a few pieces of work by Antonio Pineda, and this Paperclip bracelet by Hector Aguilar. It's made up of soldered silver wire loops formed around a silver under wire armature. The clasp is integrated into the design to appear as one of the links. It's very flexible and comfortable to wear. I've always liked the play of light on the different surfaces of the links. This is a piece that always gets noticed when worn!
