Loved and Adored Sterling Silver Earrings
The gold standard for exquisite expert quality silver jewellery is sterling silver. Sterling silver is composed of 92.5 per cent silver and 7.5 per cent copper. Though any type of metal can actually be 7.5 per cent of the non-silver portion, hundreds of years of valuable research and experimentation have proven that copper is indeed its best pair. The reason is that copper also helps enhance the durability and hardness of the metal, but not altering its fine colour.
Why Sterling Silver Earrings, Rings and Bracelets are Valuable
While it is not 100% silver, sterling silver's small quantity of copper results in very little effect on the value of the metal. Instead, it is the amount of rigorous labour involved in producing the jewellery, as well as the fine craftsmanship and skills of the jeweller, and the complexity of the design, that drive the price value of earrings, silver rings, silver necklaces, and the like.
Majority of the fine-quality silver jewellery contains a quality or fineness stamp. This stamp connotes the amount of content of precious metal, and as stated in the federal law, must also contain the registered trademark of the manufacturer.
Due to the softness of pure silver, it must only be used when malleability is necessary, like in jewellery that is handcrafted and woven and other complex designs. Due to the perfect combination of beauty and high durability, sterling silver is an ideal and well-loved material for jewellery and other household items. And unlike regular silver-plated jewellery, sterling silver will not wear down.
