Silver 925, also known as Sterling Silver, contains 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. Pure silver is not used in jewelry making, as it is too soft. Silver has a seductive look with its warm color-temperature and has been used in jewelry making since ancient times. The disadvantage of silver is: It can react to sulfur in the air (depending on air quality and skin type). This is commonly known as ´tarnishing´ or ´oxidation´. The best way to remove these dark spots is the following: polishing cloth boil water in a pan and add some salt and a piece of uncoated aluminium foil. Then put your piece of jewel into the pan and "pickle" it wait for a while. Effective are also polish products especially made for silver-cleaning.

The variety of gemstones is huge and each of them is beautiful. Most of the gemstones are made of minerals, rocks, molten glass, amber, pitch coal or even fossils. Even pearls, mother of pearl and coral are also counted among gemstones. They are unique, colorful and simply gorgeous. This makes the gemstones perfect for jewelry making.
