The whole truth about jewelry alloys from the masters of the Silvers store

The fact that buy­ing jew­el­ry cheers up, relieves stress and improves well-being has been proven by sci­en­tists and psy­chol­o­gists more than once. Even their choice in the online store intro­duces into a trance, which allows you to escape from every­day thoughts. This process is more ben­e­fi­cial than 8 hours of sleep.

How­ev­er, jew­el­ry made of gold and sil­ver with nat­ur­al stones is not afford­able for every­one. Even Hol­ly­wood stars can­not afford to buy them, but more often they rent or buy ana­logue jew­el­ry. It is pro­duced in such orig­i­nal designs that the clas­sic jew­el­er could not even dream of.

What metal is jewelry made from?

The ances­tor of jew­el­ry is Coco Chanel. It was she who began to cre­ate inex­pen­sive acces­sories, the hall­marks of which are chic and lux­u­ry. She was one of the first to refuse jew­el­ry, pre­fer­ring bright clip-on ear­rings, pearl neck­laces and trendy bracelets with pen­dants. Her styl­ish prod­ucts skill­ful­ly com­bined dis­creet extrav­a­gance and rich col­ors, eth­nic orna­ments and geo­met­ric shapes.

Mod­ern jew­el­ry is:

• elite — imi­tates brand­ed jew­el­ry Chanel, Dior, Tiffany, Guc­ci, etc. For its man­u­fac­ture, foil­ing and elec­tro­plat­ing are used — a method of spray­ing sil­ver and gold with tin, brass, cop­per, nick­el. Swarovs­ki crys­tals, cubic zirko­nia, zir­co­ni­um pearls are what expen­sive jew­el­ry is made of;

• jew­el­ry — made from med­ical gold (sur­gi­cal steel) and semi-pre­cious stones, it is of high qual­i­ty. When cre­at­ing it, amber, corals, arti­fi­cial pearls of var­i­ous shapes and shades are used. Some mod­els are made with an enam­el coat­ing. Thanks to high-qual­i­ty mate­ri­als, as well as an impec­ca­ble exquis­ite frame, these acces­sories are in no way infe­ri­or to nat­ur­al jew­el­ry, except for the cost;

• avant-garde and vin­tage — high­ly artis­tic works of art made of steel, plat­inum, bronze. They are made main­ly by hand from stain­less steel, arti­fi­cial resins, plas­tics, rhine­stones. They are absolute­ly self-suf­fi­cient prod­ucts and do not even claim to be jew­el­ry;

• eth­nic — a spe­cial style that uses motifs from dif­fer­ent peo­ples of the world. Eth­no jew­el­ry is made of cop­per, tin, bronze, Mura­no glass, moth­er-of-pearl and beads.

What is jewelry alloy?

It is a sub­stance con­sist­ing of two chem­i­cal com­po­nents. It con­tains a base met­al for jew­el­ry and an alloy­ing addi­tive that gives the alloy the desired prop­er­ties, such as strength, hard­ness, good machin­abil­i­ty and col­or depend­ing on the pro­por­tion (white, pink, red, etc.).

The most com­mon­ly used jew­el­ry alloy with the fol­low­ing com­po­si­tions:

• for sil­ver — cop­per, cad­mi­um, tita­ni­um, zinc, alu­minum, plat­ing with ruthe­ni­um, rhodi­um and brass;

• for gold — pal­la­di­um, cop­per, nick­el, zinc, plat­inum, plat­ing with osmi­um, rhodi­um, pal­la­di­um.

The dis­ad­van­tages that a jew­el­ry alloy has is the risk of an aller­gic rash on the skin of the body or on the arm (usu­al­ly this hap­pens due to the nick­el con­tent), as well as dark­en­ing over time due to con­tact with water, sweat and human sebum, cos­met­ics such as cream, per­fume and air when stored in a plas­tic bag along with oth­er acces­sories.

The cat­a­log of the Sil­vers online store presents high-qual­i­ty and anti-aller­genic jew­el­ry. Such prod­ucts are stronger and more durable than nat­ur­al jew­el­ry, they look no less styl­ish. The dif­fer­ence is not always notice­able. See for your­self by plac­ing an order right now!
