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.

PVD is the abbreviation for "Physical Vapour Deposition" and is a modern technique to coat e.g. jewelry. PVD coating is a purely physical process that takes place at high temperature and under vacuum. The jewelry gets a beautiful gold or rose gold hue and is additionally protected by the PVD coating.

The synthetic pearls with crystal core are stunning and specially designed to look like real pearls by combining a pearl coating with a drilled crystal. The special innovative coating creates a perfect replica of a natural pearl and gives a shine that seems to radiate from within the pearl itself.
