Silver jewelry - Purity

Fine silver (99.9% pure) is generally too soft for producing large functional objects, and in Sterling the silver is usually alloyed with copper to give strength whilst preserving the ductility of the silver and a high precious metal content. Other metals can replace the copper, a recent development being the use of germanium to reduce firescale in manufacturing and to give a high resistance to tarnish. However, the germanium containing alloy has not been widely taken up due to questions over the effectiveness of its tarnish resistance and the difficulty of working with the alloy. turkish filigree - turkish jewelry - turkish jewelry designer - turkish jewelry manufacturer
