Superb set of alpaca, consisting of three pieces, for tea or coffee, perfect for decorating a house, but also worthy of any collection. 

Alpaca is a malleable alloy, thousands of years old, with a low melting point. It was made of copper, antimony, bismuth and lead, but when lead was found to cause severe poisoning, it was removed from this composition. After the 17th century, in the new recipe, alpaca contains only tin, antimony and copper and is very similar to "Tibetan silver", an alpaca that also contained silver.
