Vintage Alpaca Heart-Shaped Box Description and Item Information Up for sale is this vintage heart-shaped pill box made of alpaca silver with an abalone shell decoration on top. Please excuse the glare in the photos. This small box is approximately 1 inch tall and 2 inches long by 2 inches wide. The lid is hinged and this has a clasp closure. It would be a neat addition to a collection of boxes. Identification The base is stamped, "ALPACA MEXICO." This item is believed to be vintage. Although people call this metal "alpaca silver," this silvertone metal does not contain silver. Condition This looks very good, with tarnishing to the metal and minor wear. T is a shallow, very small dent to the side near the hinge from contact with the lid when this is opened. Please review the photos, and ask any questions you may have prior to purchasing.

If you do not pay the sales tax or supply a valid resale certificate, I can not ship your parcel. 2.
