The Benefits Of A Sterling Silver

Sterling Silver is an alloy of silver containing 92.5% mass of silver and 7.5% by mass of other metals, usually copper. The sterling silver standard has a minimum millesimal fineness of 925 and sometimes more. In the United States, jewelry must contain at least 10% in order to be stamped “Sterling”. Other items may be labeled “silver plate” if they only contain .925 Sterling Silver and are therefore not as expensive as fine Sterling Silver but can still offer the same level of elegance for less cost, or just gold-plated on cheaper metals such as nickel or zinc instead.

The benefits of a Sterling Silver

1. Can be connected with other silver jewelry pieces to produce a set for the complete look.

This silver is 92.5% silver, so it can be matched with most other types of jewelry. The only jewelry that should be avoided is platinum and gold. Both these metals will cause your silver to change its state or tarnish much faster than usual.

2. Can enhance the appearance without changing its composition

The beautiful blue color on top of the sterling silver will enhance the appearance of the jewelry without changing the type of silver used to create it. This is one of the main benefits of using sterling silver in your designs since the physical look will not change but the appearance will remain elegant and classy.

3. Affordable enough to be used on many different types of jewelry pieces

Since sterling silver is made from 92.5% silver content, it is fairly inexpensive. Thus, this type of silver can be used on many different types of jewelry pieces to create a set and make a complete look. Besides the common sterling jewelry pieces such as earrings, necklaces, rings (finger rings), and bracelets, other types of silver can also be used to fit with the existing pieces and still be in line with what a $75 price tag would probably require.

4. Can be used on many different types of jewelry

Sterling silver is one of the best choices for jewelry designers to use in their designs. This silver can be polished and worn just as it is. It can also be dyed to create a color other than pure silver or made black to create a darker look. It is also one of the cheaper types of silver that are available on the market which makes it appealing since it can be found at any local store that carries precious metals. The appearance will always remain elegant even when being used on several pieces for different occasions.
