Description

The listing, *Vintage~ Taxaco~ Mexico^^Abalone and Shell Inlay~ Pendant has ended.

This is a gorgeous Taxaco Mexico pendant! It was also a brooch, but the part that locks the pin closed is broken. It still has a bail and can be used as a pendant. It has a very unusual motif of Saturn, a star and a moon. A friend gave it to me many years ago and I have no idea what kind of metal it is. It is light and very bright and shiny. As you can see in the photo of the back, there is some tarnishing. It is not marked with any numbers. As is. I can send it in the gift box as shown in the last shot. Happy bidding to all my Listia pals!!! Happy Holidays!

Questions & Comments

Is the coin for size comparison a nickel or a quarter? Sorry, but I can't really tell? :)

Lol, it's a quarter! Thank you for looking.

The metal is Alpaca, which is nickel silver - an alloy of zinc, copper and nickel. Beautiful piece. F&W.

Oh, okay! Thank you! I was curious, I knew it wasn't grade silver. It is very shiny! I know, it really is beautiful, how the crafts person put it together- quite a unique motif! Thanks for letting me know about the metal and for admiring the piece. I'll fan you back!
