Mexico Sterling Silver Pin refers to a vintage or handcrafted brooch/pin made from sterling silver (typically 925 purity) originating from Mexico, most famously from the silver jewelry hub of Taxco, Guerrero.

Mexican silverwork boomed in the mid-20th century, especially during the 1930s–1970s "silver renaissance," led by artisans like William Spratling (who revived the industry in Taxco), Antonio Pineda, Los Castillo, Margot de Taxco, and others. These pins often feature modernist designs, Pre-Columbian/Aztec motifs, nature themes (leaves, birds, flowers, insects), inlays of stones (turquoise, abalone, onyx), or figural elements.
