Design: Rosa Padillas Solís, founder of the jewelry brand Rosa Rojo, is a Guadalajara-born artisan whose work draws deeply from Mexico’s pre-Hispanic heritage. Inspired by sacred symbols such as the jaguar, feathered serpent, and spiral snail, her designs reinterpret ancient archetypes with contemporary artistry. She first discovered her passion while reselling jewelry and gemstones, eventually deciding to create her own pieces in silver accented with pearls, agates, and hematite. Alongside her husband, she develops sketches that evolve into meticulously handcrafted jewels using the lost-wax technique, a method once employed by Mesoamerican cultures. Since launching her brand, Rosa has received recognition at the prestigious ENART competition, where her work has earned top prizes. For her, jewelry is both a tribute to her cultural roots and a way to imbue wearers with beauty, meaning, and heritage.

The pendant features the Aztec god of death, Miquiztli, rendered in sterling silver as a smiling skull with wild, Medusa-like hair. Crafted by hand with a combination finish, this pendant is a unique and captivating piece that draws from Mexico\'s pre-Hispanic heritage.
