What is Sterling Silver?
Pure silver is very soft and jewelry articles like a mens silver necklace made of pure silver would not retain their shapes. A small quantity of another metal is mixed with pure silver to lend it the desired hardness. Experience has shown copper to be the best choice for improving the hardness and durability of the alloy without affecting its color or luster. The alloy so obtained is called sterling silver.

Disadvantage of Silver:
- The only disadvantage that comes to mind is that silver has a tendency to lose some of its sparkle and become somewhat darker with passage of time. Though pure silver is impervious to tarnish and does not react with air or moisture, it might react with hydrogen sulphide or sulphur in ambient air causing it to tarnish. Moreover the copper content readily reacts with air causing a layer of tarnish on its surface.
