We found some interesting information in our research about the Mariposa Company, which is still making these beautiful pieces:

"Mariposa was founded in 1984 by Livia Cowan. On a trip to Mexico with her sister, she discovered a love for crafts and returned home with a carload of recycled glass, using her parent's garage as her shop. Thus began a passion for creating innovative products made from recycled materials.

Mariposa silver gifts are handmade in Mexico from 100% recycled aluminum... The company, headquartered in Massachusetts, is committed to sustainability and continually strives to improve operations to that end. Their key manufacturing cheapest partner in Mexico is a pioneer in sustainability, having been certified by their government as the first in the country to demonstrate environmental stewardship."

Our serving dish measures 6 1/2 inches in diameter (7 inches from tailfin to mouth) and approximately 1 /12 inches deep. The knife is 6 1/4 inches long. Both are stamped with the name and date.

Striking, shining serving pieces to add to your Mariposa collection, give as a gift, or just to have for your next dinner party.
