Silver Bracelets
Silver has been used for making jewelry since ancient times years ago. Silver, by itself, is too soft to be used for jewelry so it's mixed with other metals, which make it harder and more durable. Copper is the most common metal added to silver to make it harder. The result of this mixture is called sterling silver. There are certain regulations that need to be met before the mixture can be sold. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission states that in order for a metal to be called silver, sterling silver, or solid silver it has to contain at least 92.5% pure silver.
