Argentine Mate Ritual
Mate is one of Argentina’s most recognizable rituals. In this piece, that daily tradition is elevated through Silver 900, colonial proportions and ornamental detail.
Material Note
Silver 900 is valued for its balance between purity and durability. Pure silver is naturally soft, so copper is added to provide the hardness required for an object designed for regular use.
Colonial Detail
The chalice-style form, floral relief and leaf-decorated bombilla give the set a ceremonial presence, closer to a collected object than a simple everyday accessory.

Care
- Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth after use.
- Avoid abrasive products that may scratch the silver surface.
- Store in a dry place when not in use.
- Natural silver may develop patina over time, which can be polished if desired.
- For long-term preservation, handle the floral and leaf details with care.
