Silver jewellery adds timeless beauty to any outfit. However, with so many imitations on the market, how can you determine if your jewellery is genuine? Authentic sterling silver, specifically 92.5% silver, is not only elegant but also durable and skin-friendly. Here are some simple ways to verify its authenticity.
The most reliable indicator is the hallmark stamp. Look for “925” or “Sterling Silver” engraved on your jewellery. This mark confirms that the piece contains 92.5% pure silver combined with 7.5% other metals for added strength. At Idnana Creations, every product is BIS-hallmarked to guarantee purity and authenticity.
You can also perform a magnet test—real silver is not magnetic. If your jewellery sticks to a magnet, it likely contains other metals. Another easy method is the rub test: gently polish a small area with a soft cloth. Real silver will leave a slight black mark, which is a natural reaction to oxidation.
Authentic silver also feels cool and heavy to the touch. If you notice quick tarnishing over time, don’t be alarmed—it’s actually a sign of authenticity! You can easily restore its shine with a silver cleaning cloth.
Choosing certified brands like Idnana Creations ensures that your jewellery is not just beautiful, but also genuinely pure and long-lasting. Each design reflects the perfect balance of tradition, craftsmanship, and modern elegance.
