Sterling Silver Necklaces for Men

Men’s silver necklaces are a very popular choice for males under 30 years of age, the reason for this is two fold. Firstly, silver is lot less expensive than gold and platinum, but it can still look just as striking. Secondly, the selection of silver jewellery available is far larger and often more contemporary compared to other metals.

Silver is the most lustrous metal on earth which makes it such a suitable metal for jewelry making. The highly reflective qualities of silver allow it to be polished into a higher sheen than any other white metal. The one downside with silver jewelry is that it does tarnish over time, unlike platinum and gold.

Silver is too soft in its purest form, so it is usually alloyed with other metals to produce a more durable alloy. Sterling Silver is the most common silver alloy, it is made from 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. Always look out for the marks that indicate quality silver such as ‘sterling’, ‘sterling silver’, ‘ster’ and ‘.925’. Unlike gold and platinum, the value of a silver necklace is usually based more on the style and craftsmanship of the piece, than the actual purity of the silver.

Silver is produced as a bi-product of other ores such as copper, lead, gold, uranium and zinc. Eighty per cent of the world’s silver resources come from deposits located in Canada, the former Soviet Union and Mexico.

Caring for Men’s Silver Necklaces:

Silver is easily scratched and tarnished, so it is important to store your necklace away from other gemstones in a soft pouch or box, when not in use. Try to clean your necklace at least every couple of months with a soft cloth and silver polishing solution.
