In our view, sterling silver jewelry is always fashionable. It is also long-lasting and less expensive than gold. In shopping for sterling silver, it is important to recognize authentic labels. Sterling silver is 92.5% silver and often denoted as 925. Jewelry labeled as “sterling” is another indicator. Silver plated jewelry on the other hand has a thin layer of silver on top of some other metal such as brass. Whether you are seeking earrings, chain or cuff jewelry, rings, a necklace or more, there are plenty of sterling silver options (100 + items) from black owned brands.

I think silver looks better on me than gold. Love that you feature different merchants to buy fro,
I have a sensitivity to some sterling silver but I’m happy to see so many options. I’m going to start exploring!
Love this selection! With me having a nickel allergy, I can only wear real sterling silver jewelry plus I like to support black owned brands so this is going to come in handy for the future. Thanks!!
This is good sterling silver jewelry ideas. Keep posting.
