Best Answer

1) sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver

2) Silver is about $27 per ounce

3) there are 31.1 grams in an ounce

Doing the math means it is about $.80 per gram

That does not mean anyone will sell an item for that as jewelry costs are in addition to the metal price. And it does not mean an individual can sell it for that much as many dealers buy USED items to melt down and refine.

Thus new silver jewelry sells for $1.00-$5.00 per gram and you can sell used silver jewelry for $.50-$.70 per gram

How can you tell if your necklace is real 925 silver?

To identify the real 925 silver necklace we have to know some techniques. 1. Magnets have no effect on silver - just as they have no effect on gold or platinum. But if you find that the jewelry is attracted to the magnet, then it will be clear to you that it is not made of real sterling silver. 2. Rub the jewelry using a soft white cloth. If you find any black marks on the cloth, then you can be sure that it is made of real sterling silver. 3. Nitric acid has no effect on real 925 sterling silver. If the jewelry is made of real sterling silver, the part on which you drop the nitric acid will appear creamy in color, otherwise, if fake, it will appear green or lose their color. 4. Real sterling silver shouldn't smell. If it does, it is because there is too much copper in it. 5. Real sterling silver jewelry will have markings such as "Ster," "925" or "Sterling Silver" in a hidden area. If you don't see such a marking, be wary of it immediately. 6. The price that you paid for your jewelry is a good indicator as 925 silver is much more expensive than alternatives. So by these above techniques, you can check your necklace is real or fake. Some days ago I go through "Jewelry1000.com" for top rated wholesale sterling silver jewelry, which I like most. Thanks.

How can you clean silver jewelry?

There are two levels of clean when talking about sterling silver jewelry. The piece of sterling jewelry could be either simply dirty or tarnished or both. If the piece is only dirty a solution of Mr. Clean, water, and ammonia can be used. Mix half water and Mr. Clean with a small amount of ammonia. This is the same solution many jewelers I know use in their ultrasonic to clean all types of fine jewelry. Allow the jewelry to soak for 15 seconds then rinse with water and dry. You can repeat if need be. More likely than not sterling jewelry is also tarnished. Sterling does tarnish much quicker than gold or platinum. Removing tarnish from sterling silver jewelry is easy. Mix just enough water with baking soda to make a paste and use the paste to rub on the jewelry to remove the tarnish. Rinse with water then dry.
