Tips to Buy Sterling Silver Jewelry
Silver has been the preferred decorative metal for royals as well as common people for ages. Jewelry made of silver has a peculiar sheen, which cannot be matched even by more expensive metals like gold, titanium etc. Another factor that has endeared silver to the masses is its lower prices. You can own several sets of silver ornaments and mix and match them with a vide variety of apparels. These ubiquitous pieces of art can make you stand out in any crowd.
But pure silver is too soft and tends to lose its glean and shape after some years. Sterling silver, which is used for making silver jewellery now, is free of these drawbacks and would serve you faithfully for long years, if preserved properly.
Ornament grade silver is an alloy of pure silver with copper or zinc. Addition of harder metals like copper makes silver hardier. The ratio of mixture is 92.5 portions silver and 7.5 part other metals. Most sterling silver ornaments come with a coating of metals like rhodium. This coating helps prevent tarnishing due to exposure to air and light.
While buying such silver ornaments, always make sure that the metal is stamped to contain the prescribed amount of silver, that is, at least 92.5 percent. Copper is the most common metal used to make silver suited for making jewelery. But excess of this metal may cause the ornament to get discoloured quickly. Another thing to note is that sterling silver should be bought from only genuine vendors or reliable online stores. Make sure that the dealer is not overcharging you.
