The Sterling Silver Story
Silver is the most common of the Precious Metals. It’s working qualities are very similar to gold. Pure silver, which is seldom used for jewelry because it is too soft. Silver weighs about half as much as gold and has greater flexibility. Though silver is not as malleable as gold it can achieve a more brilliant polish. In fact, silver shines above all other metals in this respect.
Silver has been used for many centuries, going back to ancient times, but because it tarnishes and decomposes; it has not survived as well as gold. Periodically, however, silver enjoys great popularity as it does currently.
As far as the price goes, silver generally lags behind gold by about four or five times.
The price of silver jewelry follows the price of gold jewelry, however, so as gold rises, silver inevitably does too.
The words silver or sterling silver describe a product that contains 92.5% silver.
Silver products sometimes may be marked 925, which means that 925 parts per thousand are pure silver. Some jewelry may be described as silver
plate: a layer of silver is bonded to a base metal. The mark coin silver is used for compounds that contain 90% silver.
The fashion trend toward Black clothing has made Sterling silver more popular the ever
but it looks best when it is clean and has a brilliant shine.
Care and Cleaning of Sterling Silver
Silver likes to be worn! It stays cleaner and shinier through the friction of movement. This makes it the perfect accessory for today’s fast-paced lifestyles.
Nevertheless, it still needs to be cleaned.
Here’s how.
Thoroughly rub sterling silver with a good silver polish
