Understanding Silver: 925 vs. 990 Silver
When it comes to silver jewelry, you might often hear the term “925 silver.” This simply means the silver is 92.5% pure, with the remaining 7.5% made up of other metals to give it strength. It’s the standard for sterling silver and is known for its durability.
But what about 990 silver? Well, it’s 99% pure silver. That means it has even less alloy mixed in, resulting in a brighter, more luxurious finish. It’s a little softer than 925, which makes it perfect for detailed, handcrafted work and gives each piece a truly premium feel.
In short, we choose 990 silver because it takes your jewelry to the next level in terms of both look and feel. It’s a little detail that makes a big difference!
