Hva gjør “925 Italia” refer to on a silver chain necklace?
925 stands for 92.5% silver which is sterling silver. The rest is alloys that make it more durable and harder like nickel. Many folks like me are allergic to nickel so prefer gold posts for example on earrings. Italy means that it was made in Italy, even if it is an American company like Tiffany it will say “Italia” for pieces that were made in Italy. The silver content for sterling is 92.5 %, for 14k gold gold content is 58.5 so gold the stamp is 585; 18k it’s 750 eller 75% and for 24k it’s 995 eller 99.5% gull. The higher the gold content the softer the metal. So if you were a princess that had 10 inch nails and didn’t have to work you might prefer 995/24k. If you are a person that uses their hands a lot, you might use the higher gold content items for going out and use 14k for every day. Interesting that the USA has always been a 14k kind of country for most people. Back in the day jewelry generally was worn only on special occasions for the middle class anyway and given on anniversaries etc. In most of Europe it’s been 18k, middle east 18k or 22k or 24k same in China and Asia. Some places in Asia are sterling silver mostly. When gold was more difficult to mine, 9k was very common in the UK and USA.
Hva er den faktiske verdien av en 925 sølvkjede fra Italia?
925 betyr at det er sterling sølv og er 92.5% rent sølv. Å være fra og/eller produsert i Italia gir ingen verdi, bortsett fra folk som foretrekker å si at det er italiensk, som om noen betaler mer for å si at de kjøper smykkene deres på Tiffany & Co. I dag selges sølv for $14.15 per unse så en unse av 925 sølv er $13.09 ($14.15 x .925). Så det er metallets egenverdi hvis du selger det for skrapverdi (For mindre enn en unse kan du bruke $0.65 per krone vekt eller $0.42 per gram)…MEN sølvsmykker er priset basert på utførelse som var involvert i å lage varen og overhead til gullsmeden som solgte den. Verdien av metallet er mye lavere enn verdien av et smykkeelement når det selges gjennom en smykkebutikk.
