PRLog -- Are you looking for an exquisite line of silver jewelry? We have created a new line that is sweet & sophisticated called J By Jay, which is high end fashion jewelry tastefully constructed with .925 sterling silver.
.925 sterling silver is an alloy of silver containing 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper. The sterling silver standard has a minimum millesimal fineness of 925 when used for jewelry. Fine silver (99.9% pure) is generally too soft and malleable for jewelry; therefore, the silver is usually alloyed with copper to give it strength, while at the same time preserving the ductility and beauty of the precious metal.
Other metals can replace the copper, usually with the intent to improve various properties of the basic sterling alloy such as reducing casting porosity, eliminating fire-scale, and increasing resistance to tarnish.
These replacement metals include germanium, zinc and platinum, as well as a variety of other additives, including silicon and boron. A number of alloys have appeared in recent years, formulated to lessen fire-scale or to inhibit tarnish, and this has sparked heavy competition among the various manufacturers, who are rushing to make claims of having the best formulation. With that being said, J Goodin, Inc ensures the highest quality of .925 sterling silver in all of our product offerings.
