    This summer Made in Mexico sale will feature a large selection of artworks collected by Carolyn J. Adrian

    of South Pasadena, California. As a student in Mexico City in the 1960s, she purchased her first piece of artwork that would inspire her collection for the next six decades. Her time spent in school sparked a love for travel and Mexican art. After working for several years in the U.S. in the international banking field, she transferred to Chase Manhattan Bank’s Representative Office in Mexico. Given the office was located in an area of the city with a concentration of fine art galleries, her collecting began in earnest. Sound advice from a prominent gallery owner to focus her collection, not try to be everything to everyone, and acquire the best affordable was central to her collection. As travel and business took her to South America, she added works from other countries along with the beginnings of a folk art collection. When Cuba opened to U.S. travel, she realized a life-long dream to visit Havana. As the Island is small many in respects, she made contact with many artists. These contacts developed into lasting friendships along with an extensive collection of c

    Above is a sampling of Mexican silver purity marks ranging from ca.1900 to the 1970's. The "Mexico Silver" or "Silver Made in Mexico" marks are seen on pieces from the 1920's through mid 1940's, their silver standard varies, but is commonly above .925 purity.
    The following number marks indicate silver purity in a percentage of 1000ths. The intaglio "900" mark is found on work dating from the turn of the century until the 1920's. The intaglio marks "980, 960, 940 & 925" are usually from the mid 1930's to the mid 1940's. The incuse mark "970" was the favorite standard of Antonio Pineda. Most work from ca.1950 onwards is stamped "Sterling" or with an incuse "925" stamp.
    The "Eagle" form marks to the right were instituted by the Mexican government in 1948. The first example (delineated) was used until ca.1955, the second example (silhouetted) until the late 1960's or early 1970's. The number on the eagle's chest indicates either the city of assay or an individual maker. (eg. Eagle stamp #1 was for Mexico City, stamp #3 was for Taxco, stamp #16 was registered to Margot). There are many variations and exceptions, the above info just provides a general framework to what was a relatively loose system.

    Circa 1979, the eagle system was put to rest and replaced by a new letter/number mark to indicate the silversmith and guarantee sterling standard.
    The first letter indicates location, and there are few in use, those most commonly seen are: T, M, G & C
    In this example the T is for Taxco - others are M for Mexico City, G is probably Guadalajara and C most likely Cuernavaca.
