Our 10% Pure Silver line is a lovely alternative  to the high prices of Sterling

Question: Why has Crystal Earth gone to 10% Pure Silver coated Jewelry

Answer: When you make sterling Jewelry and your main commodity Silver goes up 300% including associated costs and governments start to fight over the control of the commodity we figured it was time to look for an alternative.

Question: How is it made?

Its a bronze cast base which is silver filled then Pure Silver coated with a 23 micron coating of pure silver then given a anti tarnish coating. Its very durable!

Question: How is this different than plated Jewelry

Answer: The market is flooded with cheap plated "silver" Jewelry which is actually copper jewelry plated with tin. The 1/10 SF is a known standard "mark" with actual silver filling and 10% Pure Silver silver coating to give it the same look & patina as Sterling.

Question: Most imitation Jewelry has a very thin coat why is yours so thick 23 Micron?

Answer: We offer a 1 year replacement warranty and this 23Micron coating allows our 10% Pure Silver coated jewelry to be cleaned, rebuffed and polished and has a very long wear life and will actually develop a real silver patina look and finish same as our Sterling.

Question: Ive heard of gold filled jewelry but never silver filled is this new?
