Fashion is not about being safe, no. It is about having fun
with style. We think silver is the perfect compliment to your
wardrobe’s style. Yes, a great way for even the most
conservative to move safely into the unsafe style zone! Silver
pieces hold their style and a zany piece can be forever trendy.
Silver jewelry accessories are used as a form of an individual’s
personal expression and fashion art. When thinking of personal
expression styles we tend to look at clothing, hair styling, and
jewelry accessories. The almighty Silver being a key jewelry
accessory, adding flare and creative artistry. Now compare
Silver’s cost effectiveness to both clothing and hair. Clothing
has to be replaced periodically, and your hair has to be cut and
styled. Ahh…but buying an artistic silver jewelry accessory is a
one time expense, but a gift to yourself that keeps on giving
over time.
Silver is flexible and appropriate for both daytime and evening
wear. It is often used to accent casual fashions, sportswear,
and elegant ware. It is the simple elegance of silver, this
elegance gaining great favor in the worldwide fashion industry.
In the winter worn with navy, black, and other dark colors,
silver stands out and accents the winter wardrobe well. As well
in the summer, worn with open and light-weight clothing, silver
looks great and is comfortable against the bare skin.
Silver is known for its shiny bright hue when used in its
polished state, but has gained extreme popularity in a duller
matte finish or a combination of the polished and matte. Silver
possesses working qualities similar to copper and gold, but
enjoys greater reflectivity and can achieve a brilliant polish
and shine. To make it durable for jewelry, however, pure silver
(99% fineness) is alloyed together with small quantities of
copper and other metals. In many countries, (92.5% silver, 7.5%
other) is the standard for sterling silver.
However, silver is often mixed with a variety of alloys. The
added alloy gives the silver hardness, durability, and
uniqueness. Without the alloy, the silver piece would be too
soft to wear. The mix toughens the silver and makes it possible
to use silver for odd shaped jewelry, silverware, picture
frames, and more.
Silver jewelry is enjoying an unprecedented popularity with
today’s fashion conscious public. So, when in fashion do as the
fashion-what-its do, use Silver in its many forms to forego
dowdy formalities to keep your style unique, fresh, and
captivating.
