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.

Hematite is the most common naturally occurring form of iron oxide. This gemstone often occurs with other iron ores such as iron spar, magnetite or limonite and belongs to the mineral class of oxides. Apparently, hematite is one of the most important healing stones and is said to give courage, vitality and thus helps to improve the quality of life. In addition, it is the protective stone of the blood.
