Description

View Vintage Mexican Alpaca Abalone Earring And Cuff Bracelet Set with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. This is a vintage Mexican jewelry set featuring an adjustable open-cuff bracelet and a pair of matching teardrop dangle earrings. The Design: A stylized, elegant floral motif (resembling a calla lily or tulip) crafted out of white Mother-of-Pearl abalone shell slices inlaid flush into a contrasting backdrop of black onyx or dark enamel. The Metal: These pieces are stamped on the reverse side as "Alpaca Mexico". Alpaca (often called German Silver or nickel silver) is a bright, durable alloy composed of copper, nickel, and zinc that polishes to look exactly like sterling silver. Inlay Work: The jewelry features a stylized floral tulip or lotus motif created using shimmering Mother of Pearl (and possibly iridescent abalone shell pieces). Background: The iridescent shell fragments are meticulously hand-cut and inlaid flush into a contrasting black enamel or resin backdrop. Condition: Pre-owned - Good.
