How to Protect Silver Jewellery
How to Protect Silver Jewellery
In order to protect your silver jewellery, there are some steps you should take to maintain its luster. First, you must avoid leaving it unprotected in humid conditions. In addition to storing it in an airtight container, you should also store it in an appropriately-protected box. A silica sachet is another excellent way to slow the tarnishing process and keep moisture at bay. Never leave your silver jewellery in a humid room.

925 stamp on sterling silver
When buying silver jewellery, it is important to look for the 925 stamp. This hallmark denotes the metal's purity and confirms that it is 92.5% silver and 7.5% other elements. If you see STER or STG on a piece of jewellery, it is likely to be sterling silver. If you can't read the stamp, the piece is not sterling silver. It may be gold plated.

Nickel and lead-free
Nickel and lead-free silver jewellery has two main benefits: first, they are free of toxins. Because of their soft qualities, lead is not good for your health. Secondly, it is a known carcinogen, so limiting your exposure to it is important. Finally, because lead is a toxic heavy metal, it can cause chronic and terminal illnesses in some people. However, lead-free silver jewellery is safe for all ages and is suitable for both children and adults.

Durability
One of the benefits of silver jewellery is its durability. It lasts a long time and comes in countless designs. In addition, it can be used to show off the vibrant beauty of colorful gemstones. Another great advantage of silver is that it is more affordable than gold, which has increased the demand for the metal. Moreover, because silver is more affordable than gold, people can now buy expensive jewellery more frequently. And for those who are still unsure about the durability of silver jewellery, here are some tips to keep in mind:

Health benefits
Wearing silver jewellery has many health benefits, including regulating the body's temperature and neutralizing harmful substances. It can also help promote wound healing, improve immunity, and even promote good mood. The metal can also act as a natural heat regulator and affect circulation. Some even believe that silver helps reduce stress, calms the mind, and promotes mental wellness. But do silver jewellery benefits really exist? You be the judge. Read on to learn more about silver's benefits!

Cost
There are a few factors that affect the cost of silver jewellery. First of all, the type of stone used will determine the price. Sterling silver jewelry typically contains either natural or synthetic stones. The cutting of these stones will determine the cost as well. If a stone is synthetic diamond cubic zirconia, then it would be more expensive than one that is princess cut. An emerald cut or baguette cut stone would be more expensive than one that is princess cut.
