Bundle of Vintage Alpaca Mexican Hinged Bangles c.1970's

These are two incredibly beautiful bangles with hinged closure. One is inlaid with genuine abalone shell, that shines in the light, and the other is inlaid with turquoise. The deep turquoise blue inlay is comprised of turquoise chips that accents the bracelet perfectly. The abalone bangle has Mexico stamped on the back, while the turqoise bangle has an Alpaca stamp.

Please note that Alpaca Silver jewelry is handmade and does not actually contain any silver. It is a composite of copper, nickel & zinc. It is NOT suitable for people with nickel allergies.

The bracelets are 7" around. The hinge closes very securely. Both are in excellent condition, with only slight aging coloration. Alpaca Silver does not rust and tarnishes only slightly compared to real silver
