Why Buy Sterling Silver?
STERLING SILVERis a fine, precious metal and is the best kind of silver jewellry to buy. Silver is made up of 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper, it's the closest to pure silver you'll find in jewellry. (Pure silver is impractical for jewellry making.) Silver is often plated with Rhodium for a bright, shiny look which does not tarnish as quickly. However, under normal conditions with no plating, Silver will tarnish - it's the mixture of moisture and sulphur in the air we breathe that causes Silver to tarnish. Fortunately, when cleaned with any of the many silver cleaners available today, it will come up clean again. Genuine sterling silver will be hallmarked .925 or using part of the "Sterling Silver" words.
SILVER PLATE / ELECTROPLATE
is NOT real silver. It doesn't matter how thick the plating is or how great the alleged quality - it's still just costume jewellry. Usually, there's no hallmark but if there is, the letters SP or EP will appear on the jewellry. As little as 5% of the item might actually be silver. Over time, the plating will wear away and once that happens, you really can't use any jewellry cleaning agents to restore the jewellry to its former glory. Why? Whatever is underneath the plating is going to start showing through.
ALPACA SILVER
comes under the category of costume jewellry. It's an alloy of copper, zinc, nickel & iron and has the colour of silver. In most instances it does NOT contain any real silver but may be plated with sterling silver. It has the appeal of not tarnishing or rusting but can cause skin irritations in those who have sensitive skin.
SILVER TONE
is just silver coloured metal. this falls into the costume jewellry category. Because silvertone jewellry can be made of so many different combinations of metals, the quality will vary from piece to piece. Some jewellry will be hard-wearing, won't tarnish and will look just like real silver while other pieces will be cheaply made, tarnish quickly (often leaving you with a line of green or black where the jewellry has rested on your skin) and break easily. While still new, it will quite often look like real silver but even when new, can irritate those with sensitive skin. This jewellry generally tends to tarnish fairly easily, especially when frequently exposed to water, chemicals, perfumes, etc.
Sterling Silver Care and Cleaning Tips
Storage: Keep your sterling silver jewellry in a cool, dry place. Store your sterling silver jewellry in a zip lock bag or any airtight bag with non-abrasive surfaces made of polyethylene or Mylar.
Cleaning: Polishing Cloth - 2 cloths are usually included; one for tarnish removal and the other for polishing. Avoid polishing gems and pearls with the cloth.
For Rhodium finished only need to be wiped with a soft cotton cloth to remove any spots. DO NOT use treated silver polishing cloth as it will damage the finish. Remember rhodium will not tarnish.
