<<The additional metal adds strength and enhances silver's natural gloss.<------again, what pure bilge!!! Sterling silver is the combination of 92.5 percent pure silver and 7.5 percent copper, and is stamped "92.5" or "925". >>

I do know this, someone(be it Murphy's troops & or others) have something about non-pure silver right! Rumor says a few doctors in Denver(must be elsewhere too) are seeing some cases where gals (& a fewer number of guys)are coming in with allergic skin reactions to jewelry items sold as "silver" or "Sterling silver" because it is really stainless or something else with Ni in come cases coated with thin layer of silver or sterling silver. Remember my posts about more than rumors of "Hard Pandas"?

Ni is the #1 source of metallic skin allergy. Someone is selling less than silver as silver & or sterling silver - or they are using some sort of new "Sterling" alloy containing Ni.

Where there's enough smoke there is at least some fire?

How large is the flame needed before it all burns down?
