The majority of CHD’s pieces are cast in 925 Sterling Silver. Sterling Silver is an alloy of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% base metals. The base metals are added to the silver to help with durability - as pure silver by itself, would be too soft and unwearable.
Why we love Sterling Silver; more than even Gold and Platinum, the initial surface finish with by the highest luster, mirror finish out of any of the metals. What you grow to love about Sterling Silver is its charm over time, as it begins to show its age. The wear tear, a story in each marking, like a old-timers wrinkled face.
