By definition, sterling is an alloy containing 92.5% pure silver, with the remaining 7.5% typically copper, added to give the metal the strength needed for everyday use. Unlike silver plate, sterling is solid silver all the way through. It develops a soft patina over time that many collectors prize, but it can also be polished back to a brilliant luster whenever you prefer. Small scratches, signs of use, and even gentle tarnish become part of its story, making each piece feel more personal with every passing year. Whether it's a well-balanced serving spoon, a pair of elegant sugar tongs, or a favorite teaspoon used every morning, sterling silver was made to be enjoyed rather than tucked away. With only occasional care, it can serve generations, becoming one of those increasingly rare possessions that grows more meaningful—and often more beautiful—with age.
