Buying Sterling Silver Jewelry Without Being Ripped-Off

Buying sterling silver jewelry can be fun, exciting and confusing. Whether youre considering a gift of sterling silver jewelry for someone special or as a treat for yourself, take some time to learn the terms used in the industry. Heres some information to help you get the best quality sterling silver jewelry for your money, whether youre shopping in a traditional brick and mortar store or online.

Sterling silver jewelry is enjoying an unprecedented popularity with todays fashion conscious public. You know how beautiful sterling silver jewelry is and how brilliantly it shines. Now here is the rest of the story.

Silver has been used since ancient times, but has not survived as well as ancient gold because it tarnishes and decomposes. There have been times, however, when silver was in; we are going through sucha vogue today.

Silver is the commonest of the precious metals. Fine silver is pure silver, which is seldom used for jewelry because it is too soft. Sterling silver is 925 parts silver to 75 of copper, the alloy most often used. Silver weighs about half as much as gold, has greater flexibility, but is not as malleable, it has always been less expensive as well. A comparable piece of gold jewelry might cost fouror five times that of a piece of sterling silver jewelry.

The current fashion trend toward black clothing has made silver jewelry more popular than ever. Silver likes to be worn; it stays cleaner & shinier through movement and friction. So sterling silver is a perfect accessory for todays fast paced lifestyles. Much like gold, sterling silver needs to be cleaned.
