FAS stands for Fused Alloy Silver, which means the item has 925 parts of pure silver mixed with 75 parts of something else, such as copper. So 935 would be a finer grade (more parts of silver) than a 925. To explain further, the 925 means that the item is 92.5% silver and 7.5% something else. Fine silver can be too soft for many projects so it is common to fuse it with copper for added strength.
