When it comes to jade, people will think about its high price at once. We can see various jade products in the market but it is not an easy job to distinguish real ones from fake ones.

A Further Knowledge of Silver Jewelry

Silver, a white, glossy precious metal with the greatest grade of thermal conductivity among metals and resistance to oxidation and scintillation, is widely applied in manufacturing jewelry.
Pure silver, also known as fine silver, is quite soft, exceptionally malleable, and relatively damaged. As a result, smart designers often blend it with other materials to create a more endurable product, the 925 silver jewelry.
925 silver jewelry comprises of 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper. Some people might wonder that why copper is chosen to create 925 silver jewelry. That’s because copper can enhance the hardness and durability of the metal without any side effect when teaming them up, which is proved through centuries of experiments.
Since ancient times, silver has long been adopted to ornament both home and individuals. Completely pure silver jewelry is so pliable and soft that it usually goes out of shape or gets damaged. As a result, 925 sterling silver jewelry that is difficult to change and convenient to maintain is born. Now you might know why silver jewelry is not 100% pure silver.
What’s more, the sterling silver jewelry is usually embellished with other goods such as diamonds, cz, agate, etc. to cater to the captious demands of contemporary people. If want to make high and exquisite silver jewelry, it is not enough to add these embellishments, it still needs many processes and polishing.
In terms of the price, it usually differs depending on the labor involved in making the item, the skill of the craftsperson and the intricacy of the design.
