Butterfly Ring
Valentine’s Heart (Silver) Jewelry

Sophisticated butterfly jewelry line, we’ve gathered some practical info for you about the precious metal that is silver!

Our jewelry is composed of 925 Sterling silver, an alloy made up of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals. A soft metal in its pure state, silver is thus made easier to work with this combination! Retaining its panache while providing excellent hold, 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 a skin-friendly metal. Amazingly, it is used for medical purposes for its antibacterial qualities. Unlike copper and iron, which tend to give off a metallic odor upon contact with the epidermis, silver also has the property of being odorless.

However, over the long term, silver will eventually whiten and then darken upon contact with air, but that’s okay!!! The blackish deposits related to this natural phenomenon are very easily removed!  To keep your silver butterfly jewelry looking like new, you can simply clean it gently with a toothbrush and lemon juice! Another little secret from grandma: soak it in white vinegar for 120 minutes. Finally, run it under water and dry it with a cloth.

So, in order to prevent oxidation of this gorgeous metal, some of our jewelry has been rhodium-plated or platinum-plated. These very precious elements prevent oxidation while enhancing its brilliance. But still, some people will prefer pure 925 silver jewelry because they prefer the particular shine of silver. Indeed, oxidized silver jewelry is a fashion in its own right! When a tad oxidized, silver can be quite charming with its vintage look! 

In darkened or shimmering mode, this metal will lend itself gracefully to a variety of looks!
