925 sterling silver is a term you will come across often, especially if you are looking for silver jewellery. But what exactly is 925 sterling silver? The number combination 925 stands for the amount of silver in the jewellery. This is measured in percentages. 925 stands for 92.5 per cent.
A piece of jewellery consists of a composition of different metals, or an alloy. 925 therefore stands for an alloy of 92.5% silver. The remaining 7.5% consists of another metal. Often this is copper. It is not possible to make jewellery from pure silver because this material is too soft and will quickly scratch or break itself. 925 sterling silver is the highest grade of silver found in jewellery.
Silver is an authentic precious metal and retains its value. Silver jewellery always stays in fashion and is therefore timeless. What is also nice about silver jewellery is that it is a lot more affordable than gold jewellery, for example. Of course, it is also important that silver looks good on you and fits your personal style.
Jewellery made of 925 sterling silver has a beautiful luster but can become discoloured over time. They can even turn black in some cases. Discolouration of your silver jewellery is caused by a chemical reaction caused by the silver coming into contact with hydrogen sulphide. Hydrogen sulphide is found in the air and in other substances. Silver also reacts to the acidity of your skin. This is different in everyone so silver jewellery may discolour faster in one person than another.
Of course you want to enjoy your silver jewellery as long as possible, so we have listed a few tips for you.
We also recommend cleaning up your silver jewellery once in a while. With our cleaning set you will make your silver jewellery shine again!
