What Makes Sterling Silver Special

High Value: Sterling silver is a precious metal, known for its durability, brilliance, and hypoallergenic qualities.

Soft Yet Resilient: While sterling silver is strong enough for everyday wear, its natural softness allows it to be shaped into intricate designs - like ours!

The Nature of Sterling Silver

Bends Are Normal: Sterling silver is a malleable metal. If it bends slightly, it’s not a flaw or a sign of poor quality—it’s simply the nature of this high value material. Gently adjust it back into shape if necessary.

Oxidation Over Time: Sterling silver may develop a natural patina over time, adding character to your jewellery. Regular cleaning will keep it shining like new.
