Alpaca Silver The Silver used in making Alpaca Silver Jewelry & crafts is not made of Silver but is a mix of metals that make it look rich like silver. The jewelry is handmade in Mexico, Central & South America by talented Peruvian and Mexican artisans. The alpaca jewelry incorporate real semi-precious gemstones, handmade glass and abalone. This beautiful owl brooch is a wonderful example of the craftsmanship of these artists. The abalone has vivid colors that make you think of the ocean. This is a beautiful set. The earrings look like a crescent moon with a teardrop dangling in the center. The Mother of Pearl is sent into a black enamel with a silver lining around each crescent making this a truly beautiful set. It has that Boho Chic feel it. Marked Alpaca Mexico 18" Age late 1900's
