Other: Alpaca Silver is an alloy of copper, nickel, and zinc. Sometimes called Nickel Silver or German Silver, the usual formulation is 60% copper, 20% nickel and 20% zinc.

The German Silver was named after Malliot and Chorier who discovered it in France Circa in 1820. The main reason why it was called German silver is because of its silver – white color.

German silver lasts for a long period of time without losing it’s original nature and above all is a lower cost when compared to sterling silver. Also important to note is that it doesn’t tarnish, this is because it has no silver content.
