This German silver (alpaca) peace sign mobile was formed with a hammer (hand forged) and soldered with silver.

Amethysts, rhodocrosites, clear crystal quartz and agate tumbled stones adorn the area above the peace sign and a geometric design sit atop the peace sign. The figure was inspired by pre-Columbian patterns.

Below the peace sign is a wire wrapped pink agate slice and a hand forged bell.

Width of peace sign, 1 3/8”

Length of mobile from stones at top to bell at bottom, 14.5"

Total length of mobile, 25"



Created in Buenos Aires, Argentina by artisan couple Karina Firpo and Diego Cano. This duo has been creating art pieces for Cactus Gallery since 2004.

German silver when used in the creating jewelry resembles sterling silver but does not contain silver, rather it is an alloy mixture of copper, zinc and nickel. It is a hard, strong and a very durable metal combination that wears exceptionally well. My alpaca jewelry is 20 years old.
