HISTORIQUE: Alpaca Silver or ‘Alpaca’ is an alloy or mixture of metals that closely resembles sterling silver. Though it has the natural beauty of sterling, the alloy does not contain any real silver. Alpaca is also known as Nickel Silver and or German Silver. The term for this alloy in Mexico, Central America, and South America is Alpaca Silver.
Alpaca was most often used instead of sterling because it is hardier, needs less polishing and was more affordable for silversmiths.
