925 Sterling Silver Jewellery

A premium metal, 925 sterling silver is composed of 7.5% alloy metals (typically copper) and 92.5% pure silver. An alloy is added to pure silver to give it strength and wearability without sacrificing its inherent beauty because pure silver is too soft to form into long-lasting jewellery. Authenticity and purity are signified by the "925" stamp. Its brilliant shine, hypoallergenic properties, and classic elegance make it one of the most popular metals for fine jewellery. Sterling silver is a favourite among generations because it provides the ideal ratio of luxury and affordability, whether it is worn on special occasions or for daily use.

Yes, all of our sterling silver jewellery is authentically hallmarked and made from real 925 sterling silver. A discrete "925" stamp is included with every piece to guarantee that it satisfies the requirement for precious silver content. In order to preserve quality and value, we at HKS Jewellery collaborate with reliable manufacturers and handcraft each piece. In accordance with UK safety regulations, our jewellery is also free of lead and nickel. You can shop with complete confidence knowing that your piece is made with certified and ethically sourced sterling silver, whether you're purchasing a personalised gift or a simple charm.

Yes, exposure to air, humidity, and chemicals like sweat, chlorine, and perfumes can cause 925 sterling silver to tarnish over time, just like any other real silver. But rather than being a flaw, tarnishing is a normal and reversible process. Many of the silver pieces at HKS Jewellery have an anti-tarnish coating to prolong their lustre. When not in use, keep your jewellery in a sealed pouch, keep it away from chemicals, and gently wipe it down with a silver polishing cloth to keep it looking brand new. Jewellery made of sterling silver will continue to shine and be lovely for many years with a little maintenance.

Indeed, one of the greatest choices for everyday wear is 925 sterling silver, particularly if you have sensitive skin. Since our jewellery is devoid of nickel, lead, and other common irritants, it is entirely hypoallergenic. It is perfect for people who might react to costume metals or fashion jewellery because it is mild on the skin. Silver is a safe and hygienic option due to its inherent antibacterial qualities. Many of our customers have no problems wearing their sterling silver rings, necklaces, and bracelets on a daily basis. For optimum longevity, just make sure to clean it frequently and refrain from wearing it when engaging in strenuous physical activity.
