Are you unsure which material is more suitable for jewelry: 925 silver or pure silver? There is a clear answer: jewelry made of 925 sterling silver is the better choice. This is because pure silver is too soft to make long-lasting and robust jewelry.
Silver has a particularly shiny surface. It is the element with the highest reflectivity and is therefore used in many applications, such as mirrors, telescopes, microscopes and solar cells. When silver is polished, it can reflect up to 95% of visible light.
Silver has been mined for over 6,000 years and is one of the first five elements discovered, along with gold, copper, lead and iron.
Originating in England since the 13th century, sterling silver is the most common form of silver today. It is made up of 92.5% pure silver, with the remaining 7.5% made up of other precious metals such as copper to make the silver more durable and dimensionally stable.
