Questions About Estate Silver Jewelry
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024
    Why it is called estate jewelry relates to the origin of pieces that fall under this category of adornment. Estate jewelry refers to pieces previously owned by someone else that became available for purchase as a part of an auction or sale after their death. An estate is the collective name for all the property and assets that an individual leaves to their heirs. Thus, estate jewelry gets its name from the fact that it is a part of a person's estate. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of antique, vintage and contemporary jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 20, 2024
    Whether estate jewelry is real varies. The term “estate jewelry” describes earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings, brooches and other pieces that become available for sale as a part of a person's estate after they die. Because people collect many kinds of jewelry, both fine jewelry — featuring precious metals and genuine gemstones — and costume jewelry — made of less expensive materials — can be part of an estate and therefore classified as estate jewelry. Find a diverse assortment of jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024
    Yes, estate jewelry can be worth buying. At estate sales, purchasing vintage and antique jewelry may be possible for less than you'd expect to pay elsewhere. In addition, many people appreciate the one-of-a-kind character of estate pieces. When it comes to buying estate jewelry, it’s important to patronize only reputable sources. This alone significantly diminishes the potential for mishap. Beyond buying from a reliable source, it’s important to get as much verifiable information about the accessory as possible. Buyers should keep in mind, however, that the value of any investment is subject to fluctuation, and any investment decisions should be made according to the guidance of a financial advisor. At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. If you’re looking for jewelry, a diverse assortment of antique, vintage and contemporary jewelry can be found on 1stDibs from some of the world's top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    To tell if estate jewelry is real, first look for hallmarks. Pieces crafted out of sterling silver, platinum, gold and other precious metals usually feature markings to identify their materials. You can find images of these markings on trusted online resources and compare them to your pieces. Maker's marks can also be a good indication. Some jewelry makers specialize in costume jewelry, which is less likely to feature genuine materials, while others produce fine jewelry, which is usually made of real gemstones and precious metals. If you still have questions about your pieces, a certified appraiser or experienced jeweler can assist you. Shop a large collection of antique, vintage and contemporary jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    To tell if jewelry is silver, first look for hallmarks. Genuine silver jewelry will usually feature stamps that say STER, 925, 800 or 999. Another option is to take your jewelry to an expert jeweler or certified appraiser who can examine the piece and run tests to determine if it is real silver. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of sterling silver jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 6, 2024
    Yes, Gucci jewelry is real silver. The Italian luxury fashion house produces its silver jewelry out of genuine sterling silver, which is 92.5% pure silver. Gucci also makes pieces in 18-karat gold and platinum. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of Gucci jewelry from some of the world's top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    Whether Danecraft jewelry is real silver depends on the piece. The American jewelry maker does produce some pieces out of genuine sterling silver. However, the brand also produces silver-plated pieces made of a base metal and then finished with a thin layer of sterling. In addition, Danecraft offers its Pure 100 line, which contains 10% pure silver and is predominantly alloy metals. Explore a collection of Danecraft jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    Whether the jewelry in Mexico is real silver varies. All over the world, artisans produce jewelry out of a variety of materials, but silver is one of the most common options due to its beauty and strength. In Mexico, the Taxco area is particularly well known for its silversmiths, who produce handcrafted jewelry, tableware and decorative objects out of sterling silver, a form of genuine silver composed of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy metals. Taxco is so famous for silver that some people refer to it as the silver capital of the world. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Mexican silver wares and jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024
    Whether Napier jewelry is real silver depends on the piece. The American jewelry maker is best known for producing costume jewelry and using plating to give base metals the look of precious metals like sterling silver and gold. However, Napier did make an assortment of genuine sterling silver jewelry. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Napier jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024
    To know if your jewelry is real silver, look for hallmarks. Real silver pieces typically feature markings such as “925,” “999,” “STER” or “STERLING.” The magnet test may also be helpful. Because silver isn't magnetic, jewelry that attracts a magnet is unlikely to be solid silver, though it may feature silver plating. A certified appraiser or experienced jeweler can perform additional tests to help you identify what your jewelry is made of. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of silver jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    No, Sarah Conventry jewelry is not usually real silver. The jewelry maker typically produced pieces out of inexpensive metals and then finished them to resemble genuine silver or gold. Similarly, rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets made by the brand typically feature glass and acrylic rhinestones instead of real gemstones. Explore a range of Sarah Coventry jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    Jewelry marked Mexico may be real silver. The Taxco area of Mexico is particularly well known for producing sterling silver jewelry, and pieces from the area often feature a "Taxco" marking. Genuine silver pieces produced anywhere in the country may also bear other hallmarks, such as 925 or sterling. If you'd like help identifying your jewelry's materials, consult a certified appraiser or experienced jeweler. Find a range of sterling silver jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To keep silver from tarnishing, you can put activated charcoal or silica gel packets inside of your jewelry box. Both of these items help to absorb moisture to minimize the risk of tarnishing. Find a wide variety of silver jewelry on 1stDibs.
