Butterfly Earrings
Milles Eclats (Silver) Jewelry

Focus on our Silver Butterfly Jewelry Collection: our jewelry is composed of 925 Sterling Silver, an alloy consisting of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals. Silver is a ductile metal in its raw state and is thus made more consistent by this association! Retaining all of its character while giving it a more wearable consistency, it’s no wonder sterling silver is the most popular silver alloy among silver fans! In addition to its natural beauty, silver has many qualities: it is one of the hypoallergenic metals. Even better, it is used for medical purposes for its bactericidal properties. Unlike copper and iron which tend to produce a strong odor when in contact with the skin, silver also possesses the property of being odorless.

On the other hand, silver is naturally sensitive to oxidation, but that’s nothing!!! The dark spots resulting from this natural phenomenon are very easy to remove!  To keep your silver butterfly jewelry looking like new, just gently clean it with a toothbrush and a little toothpaste! Another technique: soak it in white vinegar for 2 hours To finish, run it under water and dry it with a cloth.

As such, in order to parry the oxidative tendency of this subtle metal, some of our jewelry has undergone a surface finish by electroplating. Most commonly with Rhodium or Platinum. These metals are rarer than gold and prevent oxidation while remaining very close to its brilliance. Nevertheless, some people prefer pure sterling silver jewelry because they prefer the particular shine of silver. Indeed, oxidized silver jewelry is a style all its own! When a tad aged, silver is far from being devoid of personality! 

Vintage style or ultra shiny style, choose the style of silver you prefer!
