In the family of precious materials, I choose silver! Yes, alongside gold and platinum, silver is not left out when it comes to precious materials, it is even very popular on a daily basis for its malleability and accessibility in terms of cost, which makes it a favorite for craftsmen and jewellers but also consumers.

1,2,3… 925 Silver

 

As you probably know, there are many qualities of silver, and when you don’t really know it, it’s easy not to find yourself and often to get ripped off. So, what interests us of course is the best quality of silver which is 925 silver.

It is a very popular material in craftsmanship and jewelry because it is light, easy to handle and solid. With the right maintenance there is no reason that your jewel does not survive the vagaries of time, the proof is that Amazigh the silver jewels are transmitted from generation to generation, from mother to daughter.

 

As good as new

 

The drawback of silver is that it oxidizes, loses its shine and blackens due to lack of maintenance. But do not panic, by adopting the right gestures you will be able to keep your jewels as sparkling as on the first day.

For example, your Yelli Jewels jewelry comes with their pouches, so remember to store them away from moisture when you don’t wear them.
