Pure Silver Jewelry

Pure silver has a brilliant white metallic luster. It is a little harder than gold and is very ductile and malleable, being exceeded only by gold and perhaps palladium. Fine silver, which is at its natural state, is 999/1000 pure. That kind of purity makes it too soft for molding into everyday products. Pure silver has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of all metals and possesses the lowest contact resistance.

Jewelry made from pure silver is stable in air and water, but tarnishes when exposed to ozone, hydrogen sulfide, or air containing sulfur. In order for pure silver to be hard enough and suitable for arts and crafts, alloying with other metallic components is a must.

Bespeaking elegance and sophistication, silver work on pure silver includes armlets, anklets, bangles, chokers, necklaces, bead necklace, chain necklace, bracelets, earrings, tops, pendants, rings, toe rings, hair clips, brooches and jewelry set. Other products crafted out of pure silver are ecclesiastical and domestic plate, flatware, jewelry, buttons, buckles, boxes, toilet articles, weapons, furniture, and horse trappings.
