Ringmania has been selling sterling silver rings for many years. They have been one of the best sellers since our days on UK street markets in the 1990s. Many people believe that Sterling Silver is cheap and not the same as real silver. You can find out the reason for the confusion below.
What is Sterling Silver?
We have been asked this question many times in the past and will explain here. Pure silver is a very soft metal and not very durable or hardwearing. For this reason it is unsuitable for producing long lasting items of jewellery. Therefore an alloy is produced by adding other metals such as copper and palladium to the silver element in order to provide strength. The percentage of silver added is still quite high at 92.5% and the remaining 7.5% is made up from the other metals. The resulting material is commonly known as Sterling silver and is much more durable and easier to work with than pure silver. The added strength makes sterling silver an ideal material for use in the manufacture of jewellery. Any finished rings that are offered for sale should be stamped with a 925 Hallmark denoting the purity of the silver in parts of 1000 (92.5%).
