Gold is boring try out the silver
8 May 2008As it is said that all that glitters is not gold; now next time you hear that do not think it to be anything otherwise, but be sure that it is being aimed at silver. Yes, silver is the new-age substitute to the traditional gold and it is capturing the market at an alarming rate.
Silver, among all other metals, can attain as well as retain the maximum shine and lustre and that too for the longest time period, and besides it is also weigh half as much as gold. These few primary properties of silver have got it the recognition of being most suitable for making fashion jewelry.
Among all the other types, the sterling silver jewelry is in maximum demand as it comes real cheap and looks real posh. Owing to the cheap availability of silver, it is many times used as the base metal for constructing the frame for the CZ jewelry. As cubic zirconia is coming up as the close substitute of diamond; these new genre of jewelry has become very popular among the college goers and middle classes, who have always wanted to wear something like diamond but could never afford it.
Being sturdier than gold silver jewelry is most suited for daily wear, as it can withstand most of the robust conditions to which it is subjected to. Whereas this advantage is not present with gold, as it looses its shine and colour over short period of rigorous use.
So next time you feel like splurging your money your money on something worthwhile then do give silver some serious consideration.
