Understanding 925 Sterling Silver

What Does 925 Mean?
The “925” mark indicates that the silver is 92.5% pure silver, with the remaining 7.5% composed of other metals, typically copper. This blend provides durability while maintaining silver’s iconic lustre.

What Is Hallmarking?
Hallmarking is the official certification of silver purity, often done by an assay office. In the UK, a fully assayed and hallmarked item assures you of its authenticity and quality.

FAQs About Silver Jewellery
