String Chain
for Butterfly Pendant (Silver)

For butterfly jewelry like the first day, learn more about the silver in our collection! Our jewelry is composed of 925 Sterling Silver, a blend of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals. A ductile metal in its pure state, silver is made more consistent by this combination! Retaining all of its personality while providing excellent hold, it’s no wonder 925 sterling is the most popular alloy among silver fans! In addition to its intense shine, silver has several qualities: it is an element that is perfectly tolerated by our body. Surprisingly, it is used for curative purposes for its anti-bacterial qualities. Unlike copper or iron, which can produce a metallic odor upon contact with the epidermis, silver also has the specificity of being odorless.

However, silver is naturally sensitive to oxygen, but you can relax! The dark spots produced by this natural phenomenon are easily removed!  To keep your silver butterfly jewelry looking great, just give it a light scrub with a toothbrush and lemon juice! Another technique: soak it in white vinegar for 120 minutes. A little rinsing and drying with a soft cloth will finish the job!

As such, in an effort to parry the darkening phenomenon of this subtle metal, some of our jewelry has been plated with rhodium or platinum. These very precious metals help protect silver while mimicking its brilliance. Even so, some people will prefer pure sterling silver jewelry because they prefer the more “gray” luster of silver. Indeed, some people will turn to slightly oxidized jewelry. When a tad darkened, silver can be quite charming with its antique look! 

Aged silver or ultra shiny silver, take your pick!
