Sterling
Silver
Sterling silver jewelry has become an integral part
of fashion jewelry.It has a
long history (centuries) of being used in the design of fashion adornment
in addition to its other utilitarian applications and use as a form of
currency.It has, during this
past century, taken on a greater interest with both the fashion wise and
the collector.
For any collector of sterling jewelry it will soon become apparent that
origin of the manufacturers, designers, and regions where a piece was
produce can make one become somewhat of a sleuth.The fineness standard mark varies from country to country; with
some countries having multiple numbers used within the silver fineness
index.Having solely a silver
fineness number alone, may not be of help in determining the origin of a
piece without taken in consideration other makers marks, styles or
construction techniques.
here are
a number of wonderful websites and books that can be of great help in
discovering the history of a piece.
Vintage Jewelry Collect has a large collection of
sterling silver, Mexican, Scandinavian, and European jewelry.Our collection exceeds what is represented on the website and we
welcome product inquiries:jewelryrequest@vintagejewelrycollect.com.
