HANDMADE FROM ALPACA SILVER - ANCIENT SUN CROSS - UNIQUE VIKING SHIELD DESIGN

* the sun cross most commonly represents the sun and the four quadrants the wheel of the year, i.e. the four seasonal cycles of the year.

In 1823 a competition was initiated in creating an alloy that possessed the closest visual similarity to silver. The brothers Henniger in Berlin and A. Geitner in Schneeberg won the competition by creating "white metal" which until now is used in jewellery, cutlery and coins for its corrosion resistance. Nickel-free composite - will not cause allergies!  

* Makes an excellent gift!
