Silver secret..


Silver can be affordable option when buying jewellery as compared to gold. However, due to wide quality of silver, it is best to watch the silver you do buy closely.
Look at the craftsmanship of silver jewellery very carefully. Hand made jewelers will be more expensive than machine made. Inexpensive hand made jewellery will feel waxy and easy to break. Often such material is mixed with cheaper materials and break at the first tug. The undesirable silver that contains other metals which may irritate the skin usually has improper finishes. All silver will tarnish and some manufactures tarnish to give a vintage appearance. It is better to keep an eye out for tarnishes that do not appear to be part of the design.

Silver is soft metal and cannot be used in its pure form. It is usually mixed with other metal alloys in order to make it sturdier. Sterling silver is silver with a purity of 92.5%. This means that in every 100 grams of sterling silver, there are 92.5 grams of pure silver and remaining 7.5% is made up of the other metal alloys. Silver jewellery will tarnish over time. This is because the alloys used in silver react with the air and create deposits that tarnish the surface of the items. Silver jewellery requires regular cleaning and polishing to maintain its sheen. Well-polished silver has a sheen that is even more brilliant than that achieved by gold and platinum! Most sterling silver jewellery will have a coating of a lacquer to protect it from tarnishing. All coatings will wear off with time and the jewellery will acquire a dull look if not polished.


So, beautify your bare slender neck with these brilliant silver jewelleries that can enhance your whole outfit and beauty. Silver jewellery can be one of the best and sensible indulgences that can put extra ember to your whole body.
