Makers mark on Alpacca Dessert Cups
Posted: Sat Oct 25, 2008 7:23 pm
Hi! I have a set of 6 of these little 3" x 2.5" tall dessert or sherbets.
Thanks to this forum, I know that "Alpacca" means that special alloy of zinc, copper and nickel - but also that LOTS of different companies the world over made this type of metal.
Does anyone recognize the mark next to the word "ALPACCA" on the bottom of these?
