925 silver, also known as sterling silver, means the piece is made of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper). This blend makes the jewelry stronger and more durable while maintaining its beauty.
Tarnishing is a natural process that happens when silver reacts with air, moisture, or substances like perfumes, lotions, and sweat. It’s not a defect—it’s a normal characteristic of real silver.
When silver darkens, it only affects the surface. Your jewelry is not damaged and can be easily restored to its original shine with proper cleaning.
Authentic sterling silver is usually stamped with “925.” You may also notice it slightly tarnishes over time—this is actually a sign of real silver. For full certainty, professional testing is recommended.
Sterling silver is generally hypoallergenic and safe for most people. However, very sensitive skin may react to the small amount of other metals in the alloy.
