How to make 925 sterling silver jewelry by yourself
What is 925 silver? 925 silver is the international standard silver for making silver ornaments. Since Tiffany introduced the first set of silver ornaments with a silver content of 925% in 185 1, 925 silver has become popular, so all the silver ornaments on the market now use 925 as the standard to identify whether they are pure silver. However, 925 silver jewelry does not contain 100% silver. Because pure silver is very soft, it is difficult to make complex and diverse jewelry, so adding 7.5% alloy to pure silver improves the luster, brightness and hardness of silver. After polishing, 925 silver jewelry presents a very beautiful metallic luster, but also has a certain hardness, which can be inlaid with gems and made into high-grade jewelry. At present, 925 silver is usually plated with platinum (white rhodium) to prevent silver from yellowing and blackening under oxidation or vulcanization. 925 silver without platinum plating is called "plain silver". Macarthite is generally all silver, that is, 999% silver content, and some of them are also called "Macarthite" to prevent 925 silver from being vulcanized into "ancient silver effect" by Thai technology. Generally, the domestic production of Macarthur is relatively simple, so the price is lower than that of 925 silver plated with platinum! Tibetan silver generally does not contain silver, which is an elegant name for white copper (copper-nickel alloy). Traditionally, Tibetan silver is 30% silver and 70% copper. The silver ornaments designed with 925 silver have European and American styles, which are rough, bold and avant-garde, walking in the forefront of fashion, exquisite and meticulous, and suitable for the tastes of the public. The 925 sterling silver ornaments shown to you are all hand-made, and then advanced technology and design are adopted. After manual plate making, wax injection, mold inversion, mold holding, stone setting and polishing, each finished product embodies the designer's hard work and sweat, thus making the product look very spiritual.
