Questions About Solid Silver Animals
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Solid silver means that the percentage of the metal that is actually silver is 99%. This means that the purity of the metal is 99%, with the remaining 1% of the metal being a different metal.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A sterling silver spoon is mostly fine silver, but not quite solid silver. Sterling silver is an alloyed form of silver, and is 92.5% fine silver and 7.5% copper. You can shop a collection of authentic sterling silver items from some of the worlds top dealers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024
    To tell if silver is solid or plated, try holding a magnet near it. Solid silver is not magnetic, but the base metals used in silver plating often are. As a result, if the magnet sticks strongly, the piece likely features silver plating. Another way to determine the materials is to look for markings. On silver wares produced in the U.S., the markings “STER,” “925” or “.925” usually indicate solid silver, while “EP,” “EPNS,” “A1” and “AA” typically indicate silver plating. When in doubt, seek the opinion of a knowledgeable expert, such as a certified appraiser or experienced dealer. Find a variety of silver wares on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    No, sterling silver, no matter what its used to make, is not solid silver. In most countries, the sterling standard is 92.5% silver with an additive alloy, usually copper, making up the rest of the sterling silver. Sterling silver is harder than pure silver and much more useful as tableware. Shop a collection of sterling silver from some of the worlds top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 11, 2024
    No, Patek Philippe silver dials are not solid silver. The Swiss watchmaker’s dials are most frequently made of brass. The use of the word “silver” in describing a Patek Philippe silver-dial watch is intended to refer to its color, which usually owes to finishing that involves a galvanic painting or enameling process.

    Find vintage Patek Philippe watches on 1stDibs.

  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021
