925 Sterling Silver

Pure silver is a soft metal, so for jewellery making it must be alloyed with another metal to give it strength. Traditionally this has been copper, which is why silver can take on a slight golden glow if not polished regularly. It also causes oxidising when exposed to oxygen and sulphur, which turns it dark grey, but again this is easily removed with periodic polishing. This oxidisation is often used to enhance the appearance of silver in jewellery making, giving it more of a ‘pop’ and a lovely vintage appeal when combined with traditional designs. The best ratio of pure silver to an alloy metal has long been regarded as 92.5% pure silver to 7.5% alloy, hence the term 925 Sterling Silver.
