Silver Chains - Real Or Fake? How to Tell

!±8± Silver Chains - Real Or Fake? How to Tell

Gold is out, and silver is in! This has been the fashion trend for the past few years. Indeed, while sterling silver chains do not rival its golden counterpart in terms of value, it does have in terms of popularity.

Silver Chains Equals Quality

These days, getting silver chains can be rather costly. But if you are one of the many people who give importance to quality over price, this can be a very good investment. The popularity of silver chains and other accessories have given rise to silver plated jewelry pieces and, unfortunately, some that are sold as sterling silver pieces even if they are actually not. 

To make sure that the silver chain you are getting is made of. Sterling Silver, or a cheap fake, here are some ways on how to check your jewelry piece.

Check for the Mark

Silver jewelry pieces, including silver chains would often be branded by a small "925" marking. This is usually place on the jewelry pieces where they are less likely seen. In the case of rings, and some bracelets, the 925 marking is usually found on the inside part of the ring or bracelet. For .925 silver chains, the marking is usually found on the clasp of the chain. These markings are extremely small and oftentimes, you may need a magnifying glass to check this out. 

Acid Test

Since there are a lot of cheap imitations posing as sterling silver chains and other silver accessories and items, another way to test this is through a nitric acid test. You can ask your local jeweler to do the nitric test before you or you can do this at home. To do this, briskly rub a certain portion of the silver chain or silver item that you would like to test. It is a good idea to do this on a part of the silver piece that is not easily noticeable. This would allow you to break the plating on top of most silver pieces which is placed to prevent it from easily tarnishing. Apply a few drops of nitric acid onto the scratch surface and check the results. The color of the liquid would tell you what kind of silver it is. If the liquid turns into a cloudy grey color, you are guaranteed that your silver piece is made out of sterling silver. If it turns green, it means that it is only silver plated.

Being on the Safe Side

To make sure that you are only given genuine silver chains and other sterling silver jewelry pieces, make sure that you only go to a recognized jeweler that specializes in sterling silver pieces. If you do plan on buying silver chains and other silver pieces over the Internet, it is a good idea do some research on the credibility of these online stores. Sterling silver does not come in cheap, and more often than not, the prices placed by these jewelers can be rather shocking. Nevertheless, it would make a great piece of jewelry that you can enjoy for a lifetime

Sterling Silver Rings - The Top Trends For 2010

!±8± Sterling Silver Rings - The Top Trends For 2010

Silver jewelry predominates gold in 2010 fashion trend surveys. Many designers, both young and the legendaries are tilting their jewelry scale to silver for 2010. The names include those of Vera Wang and Tom Binns. Exclusive handcrafted jewelry designer John.S.Brana is also presenting his collection of sterling silver jewelry. Also, the designer house 'Rock + Royalty' has come up with their collection of silver jewelry for 2010.

The reasons behind such a silver-shift, are appearing explained and reasonable too. Though the silver-tilt is a little less prominent now, fashion analysts are foreseeing more silver participation as the months will go by. The analysts are upholding the 'beginning of the end of recession' theory, while reasoning with the silver-tilt trend.

Every cloud has a silver lining. The overcast clouds of recession are slowly dwindling away. People are seeing silver linings of hope beyond the clouds. And what is best way to celebrate this hope? Sterling silver jewelry is serving the purpose best.

Also, the quiet 'back-to-nature' trend this season, is another reason why silver jewelry is finding more expression. The plainness of white, the antique and tribal vibe and the simple intricacy of silver is gradually finding its revival in prestigious fashion avenues this season. Also, the fact that silver can be so easily encrusted with gem stones and crystals, is adding glittering colors to the reputation of silver. Silver is also getting a very sublime recognition as a bridal wear jewelry.

The most recent evidence is that of designer John.S.Brana, who is introducing sterling silver jewelry along with gold at the 13th Annual Designers by the Bay and Fine Jewelry showcase on 20th of October. This San Fransisco event is being attended by more than 200 high profile guests from the Jewelry industry. Brana has designed sterling silver cuffs and has sculpted and hand-texturised them. He says, he wants to focus on versatility and sculptural textures for his spring 2010 collection.

Fashion legends, Vera Wang and Tom Binns, are finding glorious expression in sterling silver necklaces. Tom Binns is a designer who has been a long time lover of Sterling. Silver has been his favourite medium for long. As long as two years back Binns created Sterling cuffs with an opening at the back. More recently, in August 2009, he created the unique 'zipper earrings' with sterling. The earrings are essentially 3.25 inches long Sterling silver zippers hanging from a single white crystal.

The necklaces are gorgeous and stunning. Tom Binns' creations are more exuberant and glittering in crystal colors, while those of Vera's are more bridal and poised in nature. The diamond and pearl-encrusted Vera Wang bridal necklaces are complete with accompanying ear rings. The ear-rings themselves are individual and beautiful and can be even worn alone.

The designer house Rock & Royalty Brands also showcased sterling in their latest collection. The exquisite jewelries are designed to symbolize love, peace and unity. They are simple and beautiful and were inspired by organic shapes and simple lines. The sterling silver jewelries were hand made through every stage of their creations. Most exquisite are the leaf-motif pendants where the leaves are so arranged to create the appearance of different flowers. Some of these leaf-arrangements invoke a plant shape when viewed upside down.
