Is 925 sterling silver worth buying?
1 Answer

Many jewelry lovers believe that 925 sterling silver is worth buying. Not only is the cool color of sterling silver visually appealing, but the metal is also fairly resistant to scratching. Compared to fine silver, sterling is also less likely to tarnish. The benefits of sterling silver have led many well-known jewelry makers to craft pieces out of the material. Among them are Tiffany & Co., David Yurman, Alex Jona and J Dauphin. However, whether or not it's worth investing in sterling silver jewelry is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection.
