Frequently Asked Questions
What does 925 sterling silver mean?
The 925 in front of sterling silver means that the silver is made up of 92.5% silver (by weight), and 7.5% other metals. The “other metals” tend to be copper, as it is less of an allergen than other metals such as nickel. 925 sterling silver is the jewelry standard in the U.S. as well as most places around the world, so it is what you see most places.
Which birthstone do you put in a necklace?
This is up to you. Some children may choose to put their birthstone in their mother’s necklace to remind their mother of them, while others may choose to put the mom’s birthstone in there to represent her. This is a personal choice and varies depending on what your mom would like to see the most.
Should you take necklaces off in the shower?
The answer to this depends on what the necklace is made of. If it’s solid gold, white gold, or yellow gold, the shower will not do any damage, but over time, it can dull the shine of the metal. If the necklace is gold-plated, showering can cause the gold layer to completely wear off eventually, so it is best to refrain from wearing your gold-plated necklace in the shower.
