Sterling Silver Aztec Mask Tie Clip R.B.Z. Mexico 925 Vintage

This striking vintage sterling silver tie clip features a bold Aztec / Mayan ceremonial mask design, handcrafted in Mexico and signed R.B.Z. The face is sculpted in high relief with deeply carved eyes, a strong nose, a crown-like headdress, and a working mechanical nose ring that actually moves freely, just like a real piercing — a highly desirable collector detail in Mexican silver.

Stamped .925, Hecho en Mexico, and R.B.Z, this piece was made during the golden era of Mexican silver craftsmanship, when small workshops produced sculptural jewelry inspired by indigenous Mesoamerican art.

The mask is mounted on a solid, heavy sterling silver tie bar with a smooth spring clip back. The silver has developed natural fire-scale and light surface oxidation from age and original studio heating, visible as subtle darker areas in the metal. This is normal for vintage Mexican sterling and confirms authenticity rather than detracting from it.
