Q. How is silver a ring designed?

Answer

Instead, sterling silver, which consists of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper, is created by alloying fine silver with copper. Sometimes buyers will hear people refer to sterling silver as "925 silver" or see a 925 hallmark because of the amount of fine silver it contains. Especially when exposed to moisture, sterling silver's additional copper accelerates the metal's natural oxidation process, turning it a dark brown or black color. However, sterling silver tarnish is easily removed, and the metal below is still in excellent condition, resistant to corrosion and wear and tear. However, even sterling silver's relative softness might render it inappropriate for use with some exceptionally pricey gemstones.
