What is 925 sterling silver?
925 sterling silver is an alloy that is 92.5% pure silver, with a small share of other metals (usually copper) for strength. Pure silver alone is too soft for everyday jewelry, so this is the standard for quality silver pieces.
Because it is a precious metal through and through, sterling silver does not "wear off". It can darken with time as it reacts with air and moisture, and a gentle polish brings the shine back.

Does sterling silver tarnish?
Sterling silver can darken over time as it reacts with air, moisture and some products. It is a surface reaction, and a silver polishing cloth usually restores the shine.
What is the difference between 925 silver and gold-plated jewelry?
925 silver is a precious metal all the way through. Gold-plated pieces have a base metal with a gold layer on top. Both are beautiful; silver is restored with polishing, while plated pieces depend on protecting the finish.

Yes. 925 is the standard for sterling silver: 92.5% pure silver plus a small share of other metals so the piece holds its shape.
