Product Information

Although our collection of women’s silver rings features some beautiful engagement rings and wedding rings to treasure forever, we’ve also got sterling silver rings that make wonderful costume jewellery. Layer up these rings on your fingers or wear across your whole hand to make a quirky statement; remember that silver rings don’t just have to be for your ring finger, they can be a gorgeous treat for yourself too. In gold rings, the 925 mark means that the ring’s actual or base metal is sterling silver that’s coated/ plated with gold. Therefore, the next time you see a 925 mark on a piece that looks genuinely gold, you know that it means that you are buying a gold-plated sterling silver ring. So, if you are looking for good quality gold-plated sterling silver rings, look for 925 jewelry (gold).

Regarding value, 925 gold isn’t solid gold, but it’s still valuable since these pieces are made of high-quality sterling silver plated with relatively good-quality gold. While sterling silver is cheaper than gold and other precious metals, there are many sterling silver imitations and fakes on the market today. Therefore, jewelers add other metals to pure silver to make the precious metal harder and durable, and to create the intricate rings you are now looking at. The gold-plated sterling silver piece of jewelry is also called gold vermeil. This technique is common with costume jewelry.
