Should You Choose Jewelry in Sterling Silver?

Sterling silver is a sophisticated and versatile precious metal that forms the most beautiful and elegant piece of jewelry. Sterling silver is a metal made of pure silver and other trace metals. Sterling silver is here to stay and was actually made because of many problems with pure silver being a very soft metal which resulted in worn and vulnerable jewelry.

Sterling silver was made as a unique and sparkling solution for the soft silver which has resulted in sterling silver today being one of the most widely selected metals in the manufacturing of high-end luxury jewelry.

Therefore, the advantage of buying jewelry made of sterling silver is, among other things, the jewelry’s strong durability and lightness. In addition, the material is also extremely lightweight which makes it comfortable to wear every single day for a beautiful and complete look.

Sterling Silver vs. Other Metals

When it comes to jewelry creation, the three most widely used metals are platinum, gold, and silver. However, there are some points where sterling silver stands out.

When it comes to functionality, sterling silver is clearly preferable since both sterling silver and white gold are far stronger metals than for example platinum which is very soft and easily scratched or damaged. In addition, sterling silver often has a lighter and finer tone in its appearance compared to white gold which makes sterling silver jewelry a timeless and elegant choice. Sterling silver is one of the lightest metals available which makes the jewelry an extremely light and beautiful choice that can be used both daily and at special events.

With its beautiful luster and high quality, sterling silver is pretty much the most affordable precious metal on the market which makes it possible to buy unique high-end and luxurious jewelry at an affordable price.

Benefits of Choosing Sterling Silver

Sterling silver earrings: Earrings made of sterling silver are bestsellers. Not only do you get the most beautiful and sparkling earrings – they are also robust and strong enough to withstand bending.

Sterling silver necklaces: A sterling silver necklace is a practical and beautiful choice that can be worn every single day for many years into the future. The necklace is made of a solid material that does not scratch or burst easily which clearly makes it a preferred choice.

Sterling silver rings: When it comes to rings, it is incredibly important and crucial that they can be worn daily without having to worry much about wearing the ring. Rings made of sterling silver are preferable as they are extremely durable. The rings are easy to wear and keep their shape even though they are worn daily.

Sterling silver bracelet: it doesn’t matter if you love massive bangles or fine chains. An elegant and beautiful bracelet can add the final touch to any look – but if the bracelet is damaged or bent, the radiance from the bracelet quickly vanishes. Therefore, it is always a good idea and an advantage to choose sterling silver since the precious metal significantly enhances the durability of all bracelet types – both for heavy and massive bangles and fine small chains. This allows you to wear your beautiful and sparkling bracelets every single day.

By choosing jewelry made of sterling silver, you get a completely beautiful, affordable, and extremely functional piece of jewelry that can be worn at any event day or night!

Sterling silver allows you to find the jewelry you have been dreaming of without compromising on your budget.

Lifespan and Durability

As mentioned, jewelry made of sterling silver manages to maintain its beautiful luster and shape in daily use which makes the jewelry a must-have for any jewelry lover.

Beautiful and elegant jewelry never goes out of fashion. And if you take care of it, it can last for generations and be with you forever.

Allergy-friendly

Many people suffer from nickel allergy or other forms of allergy to various metals that appear in various jewelry. In this situation, sterling silver is a good choice when it comes to allergy-friendly jewelry. The jewelry can be worn daily without significant risk of reactions to allergies.

A Timeless Choice

Sterling silver allows you to keep up with the latest trends and tendencies without breaking your budget. The radiance and luster of a piece of jewelry made of sterling silver mean that the piece of jewelry remains timeless, elegant, and radiant throughout time. In addition, silver is a beautiful and universal color that goes timelessly with any look and can be worn for everything in your wardrobe.

Whether you are invited to a big event, wedding, birthday or just a cup of coffee with a dear friend, beautiful jewelry made of sterling silver can always make you look perfectly put together, beautiful, and sparkling

In addition, the neutral and fine silver color also goes beautifully in contrast to other jewelry metals such as white gold, which makes it possible to combine and stack the various jewelry combinations for an elegant and sophisticated look exactly as you prefer.

Sterling silver jewelry is a must-have for any jewelry lover. The jewelry can be worn for any occasion and put together seamlessly with all your other jewelry favorites! In addition, it is an incredibly durable piece of jewelry, so you do not have to worry about what you do or where you are when you wear your beautiful and sparkling jewelry.

How to Measure

The Tape Method

1. Grab a tape measure, string, or strip of paper.

2. Wrap it around the finger you’ll wear your ring on—if you’re creating a ring stack, consider where on your finger the ring will sit—and mark where it joins with a pen.

3. Lay your string or paper strip on a flat surface and measure the length up to the mark using a ruler. Use the chart above to match the measurement to the closest Abelstedt ring size.
