Fine silver appears more dull compared to the bright polish of sterling. Fine silver is soft and will scratch, dent and change shape relatively easily. For these reasons, fine silver jewelry is not as common as sterling silver jewelry sine the pieces will not hold up well over time. The benefits of fine silver are that it is easy to form and it is highly resistant to tarnish. Because it is a soft metal, fine silver is best used for earrings or necklaces instead of rings or bracelets which are more prone to rough wear.
