About this Metal

Sterling Silver is a bright, shiny and high quality metal commonly marked with a ".925". The composition is 92.5% silver and 7.5% of copper. Because silver is soft by nature, a small amount of other metals are added to give it a practical strength and durability. Sterling Silver will tarnish with age or in contact with water. But can easily be buffed clean again. Suggested Wear: Sterling silver is a great option for sensitive skin. You can shower in Sterling Silver but will need to clean it as it starts to tarnish. Sterling Silver will last you for lifetimes.
