Silver has been used in jewellery and as currency since antiquity. It was one of the first metals discovered by our ancestors and has since been used to make everything from solar panels to tableware. Still one of the most common uses for silver remains jewellery, due to its high reflective properties. Sterling silver is an alloy of 92.5% silver and 7.5% of another metal, usually copper. This percentage is also where the marking of 925 comes on silver jewellery. This increases silver’s strength and hardness. Silver alongside metals like gold and platinum are considered precious metals. Below we’ve created a list of sterling silver jewellery recommendations. Whether as an everyday accessory or for a formal event, these pieces will become your new favourite.
