Understanding Sterling Silver and 925 Hallmarking

Sterling silver is a high-quality metal alloy containing 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, typically copper, to enhance its durability. The term "925" represents this silver content.

Hallmarking vs. Stamping

• Stamped 925: Indicates that the jewellery is made of 92.5% silver but may not have undergone UK purity testing.
• Fully Hallmarked & Assayed: Means the silver has been officially tested by a UK Assay Office, confirming its authenticity and providing additional assurance of quality.

Why is Hallmarking Important?

Hallmarking plays a crucial role in ensuring that you are purchasing genuine, high-quality silver jewellery. It:

• Confirms the purity of the silver alloy used.
• Identifies the maker or sponsor of the piece.
• Provides information about when and where it was manufactured.
• Protects buyers from counterfeit silver jewellery.

At H E Phillips Ltd, all silver items are fully tested and guaranteed for authenticity, giving you complete confidence in your purchase.

FAQs About Sterling Silver

1. How do I know if my silver is real?

Look for a hallmark stamp, such as "925", which confirms its silver content. Fully hallmarked pieces have been tested for purity.

2. Can sterling silver jewellery be worn every day?

Yes, sterling silver is durable enough for everyday wear, but proper care will help maintain its shine.

3. Why does silver tarnish?

Tarnishing occurs due to exposure to air, moisture, and certain chemicals. Regular cleaning helps prevent it.

4. How should I store my silver jewellery?

Keep your silver jewellery in a dry, airtight container to minimise tarnishing.

5. Is sterling silver hypoallergenic?

Yes, sterling silver is often safe for sensitive skin, but some people may react to the small amount of alloy metals used.
