What does 925 sterling silver mean?

The "925" hallmark guarantees that the alloy contains at least 92.5% pure silver. It is the legal threshold in Spain and the European Union for designating a piece as genuine silver jewelry, and it distinguishes solid metal from surface plating or imitations.

In everyday wear, 925 silver is well tolerated by sensitive skin and retains its shine with minimal maintenance. If you want to know how to clean and store your pieces correctly, you can find the steps in the jewelry careguide.

925 silver earrings: what's in the catalog?

Earrings are the broadest category. The catalog includes stud earrings with cubic zirconia settings, climbing designs with floral motifs that follow the earlobe, and drop versions with freshwater pearls and cubic zirconia details that add movement and catch the light.

For weddings or events, long earrings with brilliant-cut and drop cubic zirconia have enough length to stand out without needing additional accessories. Up & down designs, made of two independent pieces, are a popular choice for those who wear multiple piercings and are looking for a more modern look.

A practical criterion when choosing: stud and climbing models are more comfortable for long days because of how they attach. Earrings with movement catch direct light better, so they work especially well at night or in well-lit interiors.

Rings, necklaces, and bracelets in sterling silver

The full catalog also includes women's silver rings, silver necklacesand bracelets. These pieces are designed to be worn alone or mixed together depending on the occasion.

Rings lend themselves well to mixing: stacked, on different fingers, or as a single piece. The necklaces follow a fine and discreet line, closer to minimalism than to statement jewelry. The bracelets range from fine chains for everyday wear to more striking models for specific occasions.

How to mix 925 silver jewelry without overdoing it

Sterling silver is a neutral metal that pairs well with almost any outfit. It works just as well with an everyday look as with an evening look, and it allows for mixing without the result looking overloaded if you apply a couple of simple criteria.

The most useful: limit the focal points. If you are wearing drop earrings or something with a lot of shine, opt for a fine necklace or skip it. If the necklace is the main piece, small stud earrings balance the look without competing. Mixing different sizes within the same metal works better than combining different metals if you are not experienced with layering.

Frequently asked questions about 925 silver jewelry

What is the difference between 925 silver and sterling silver?

They are the same thing expressed in two ways. "Sterling silver" is the legal term in Spain for alloys containing at least 92.5% pure silver. The number 925 is its numerical equivalent in the hallmark. A piece marked "925" or "925 sterling silver" meets exactly the same standard.

Does 925 silver turn black over time?

It can darken due to oxidation, especially when in contact with sweat, perfumes, or damp air. This is not a defect; it is the natural behavior of the metal. With a soft cloth and by storing the pieces dry and protected from the air, they easily regain their shine. You can find the details in the jewelry careguide.

Can I wear 925 sterling silver jewelry every day?

Yes. 925 silver withstands everyday wear well. To extend the life of the pieces, it is best to take them off before showering, swimming in chlorinated pools, or applying creams and perfumes directly to the area where you are wearing the jewelry. These are basic precautions that require no special effort.
