About Brightt Abalone Filigree Butterfly .925 Sterling
The whitest of all of the precious metals, Sterling Silver has been heralded for centuries for its highly lustrous finish and versatile applications. Although harder than gold, sterling silver is still considered one of the more pliable and supple metals. Its malleability makes silver easy to hammer and mold into various forms and shapes. Silver melts at a slightly lower temperature than gold (1760 degrees F as opposed to 1960 degrees F). While pure silver can be combined with many different types of metals, sterling silver is created infusing pure silver with other metals and alloys (typically copper). Sterling silver jewelry can be composed with different amounts of copper but is most often seen with the .925 stamp, meaning that the composition is of 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper. This has been found to be a good combination for maintaining the silver's durability without sacrificing build quality & aesthetics.
