SILVER Jewelry worth BUYING?!

- Is silver jewelry right for you? I know a lot of people that love silver and prefer it over gold. I also know people that HATE silver jewelry. I'm some where in the middle. I love silver as a metal but don't like it for jewelry use. The tarnishing factor on silver kills it for me. I get it's easy to polish and clean but I just don't want to worry about it. Let me know what you think.

If you put your silver in a baking dish lined with foil, cover the silver with baking soda and then pour boiling water on it, it reverses the oxidation reaction and gets rid of the tarnish immediately. It sacrifices the foil which takes the tarnish instead. Fish your jewelry out with a fork and rinse under cold water. It'll look like new.
Disinf3ctant exactly wat I do
Silver cleaners are only 8$ takes tarnish off in 1min.
Just dip it in $4.00 Target or Connoisseurs silver jewelry cleaner. 10 seconds. Shiny, beautiful, new, just like that.
Kevin Abraham 😂😂😂 same thing I was thinking
Hey, thanks!
Right know i’m rocking silver chains, because i just can’t afford gold as a student. But one day i’ll be rocking hella gold chains.
Shred God broke boy
Julio Rayo-Ramos i can afford gold chains but id rather buy silver and guns :)
@@julior.5351 lmao weirdo u aint no millionaire tho
I'm rocking silver because its a sin to wear gold in my religion.
I can afford gold but like silver better...gold breaks too easy and looks dumb with my skin tone
*you forgot to mention if silver is worth buying*
OBVIOUSLY Only the buyer can answer that question, genius SMFH
@@razvandragos5215 Buying as bullion, jewelry. Not so much.
Bacchanalia Depends what your meaning of worth is. If you buy jewelry with the intentions of it growing in price it’s the wrong intentions. You don’t buy a chain because over the years it’ll be more expensive, you do that with stocks or houses. You buy it cause you like it. So yes it’s worth it to buy silver
@@razvandragos5215 I meant like if you sell it, you will get scrap prices. Or if you sell it to someone, you will get probably 75% of what you paid.
Bacchanalia Well it depends on what market you buy it on and who you sell it to. It’s the same with gold. If you go to Macy’s and you buy a gold chain that has 7 grams for 2k dollars and then you go to sell it, you’ll get like 100 bucks give or take
I do think silver is worth buying. Sterling silver at 92.5% purity is great and it's so much more affordable because I like a heavy piece.
Does 92.5 coast Less or more?
@@christopherrodriguez3992On average its about 60-200 depending on the chain itself, the size and the length
@@christopherrodriguez3992less it’s 92.5% silver
I actually LOVE the part when I get to polish my silver jewelry. So I don't mind the tarnishing at all. Silver is just perfect for me. Love that it's a bit warmer toned then white gold. Then again, yellow gold is it's own thing and I go between obsessing over both so I get both sides
I recently was going to switch to gold and realized nah fuck that, silver all the way!
Edit: I did go the gold route. I realize the sun hits gold in such a beautiful way, almost nothing like it. But overall, silver has more shine to it when it's not super sunny out, and I still prefer silver. I got into white gold, too, but it kind of just looks like stainless steel to me. Not as dark, but nothing special in my opinion. I would not purchase more white gold.
@@vision821k4 bro a high polished piece from dynamis in silver shines your eyes out on the sun
silver is definitely an acquired taste. aluminum foil, baking soda and boiling hot water helps tremendously with the tarnishing.
Louis Banks or a proper 2 sided polishing cloth
please explain why aluminum foil is included..
Boiling water salt aluminum foil and wait for 24 minutes.. Chain looks like Day one.
Yes it does
@@keepup5063 Because after the treatment the silver looks like new.Yesterday i treat a old silvercoin which became black over the decades with aluminium foil, salt and hot water,and 15 minutes later the coin was like new.
To help reduce tarnishing buy pieces you know you will wear everyday without taking it off, even in the shower(showering with it will not hurt it) When and if you take it off be sure to put it in a Ziploc or Ziploc style of bag. Make sure to get all air that is in the bag and clip the seal very good so know for sure it is real properly sealed. All of this will greatly reduce the problem of tarnishing. NOTE: Wearing it everyday day like a chain around your neck(in my case) will keep it from tarnishing ensuring shiny and bright appearance as it was intended to be.
I like silver because you have to mating it shinny and clean , so clean silver jewelry shows who you are as a person
In 2003 I got a silver chain from the mall, 925 and it cost me $130 It was like 11mm 26in chain. I went by the same place today asked for the price of a similar chain similar weight similar width, length. $980 , The price might go up slow but it does continue to go up
Correction: the value is silver is stable - the cost remains constant in terms of human effort & materials required to pull an oz from the earth. The dollar is dying.
Can you do a video on silver vs white gold
How much are .999 grain silver
Jacksonhogard Jewlery I think he did right
So such thing as "white" gold there is only yellow gold white gold is just gold plated with rhodium. So it's actually more maintenance with white gold u need to consistently get it dipped. However silver u just need to polish to maintain it.
@@kingkolbra8146 nah not really i like when im able to see the yellow gold coming out of my white gold chain it gives it a good kind if two tone look that be glistening you can tell gold from silver always silver is just bright as hell and always just shining but gold be glistening beautiful in person way different
I love tarnished silver. Gives the silver more character. Also it brings out the detail.
I remember having a similar thought like 15 years ago in High School LOL
Me too. It starts to get that gunmetal look which I really like. Better than buying cheap gunmetal plated pieces.
Yes, it gets a nice patina and cleaning isn't really a big deal.
Also I don't trust rhodium, it's radioactive and considered to be carcinogenic according to some sources.
@@joeg.9536 wow thx for the heads up 💯💯💯
Your right. I found a $10 bracelet that i really like but it's stainless steel. For me to have the bracelet made in Sterling silver is gonna cost me $309 which ain't bad.
If you get the right chain...silver can actually look better than gold... my advice is buying a silver chain with multiple reflection points like a corde chain or a byzantine chain... cleaning silver isn't even a big deal... yeah it takes time but in my opinion the shine you get with silver is way better than gold
I love the silver chains, I’d pick it over gold cause I like the colour, both are awesome. Not worried about tarnish cause you can clean or get it cleaned
what about sterling silver x white gold x platinum your thoughts on the differences
There's nothing wrong with silver, the only thing that makes gold special is the cost, I don't mind cleaning it and I love the white metal tint that silver has
Believe it or not,if u incorporate all three of those precious metals ,it looks great and they are 3 different colors when placed together!!!
Silver outshines them all.
I have a 5mm silver flat curb chain which I've had now for over 2 years and never have I ever had to clean it or polish it... it still shines like I bought it yesterday.. I shower with it, go to the beach with it, sleep with it, and go to the gym with it.. I wear it every day until I bought my first 2mm diamond cut yellow gold rope chain.. I wear the silver more because its cheaper and wouldn't want to get robbed for my gold 1
i’m rocking sterling silver because i’m just starting to get into jewelry and want to see how diff pieces look on me
I just don't care for white gold been rocking silver sence I was a kid just keep a nice cloth n liquid silver cleaner on deck I love cleaning my jewelry.
Thank you for this video, in my opinion I love sterling silver I have no problem with it, tbh Idc what ppl think about what im wearing or what im not cause At the end of the day they are not the ones paying for my jewelry lol just saying, but it is very beautiful and very affordable and if you know how to take care of it it will last forever, I have a set of a cuban chain and bracelet, 12mm both of them and I always get a compliments, and they still look the same and I use them everyday
Facts. I’m rocking my silver shit too. It looks good and shines better.
Hell yeah man me 2 I got Cubans francos n ropes a good cloth I use mayflower brand and a good liquid silver cleaner 😎
I like silver more then gold
@Matthew M Whats funny about that a lot of people do I don't but everything is preference.
Matthew M let a nigga like what they like shit
Matthew M you=AIDS for not letting people have they own opinon🥱🥱
@Matthew M typical poser 😂
CHUUCH
I love sterling silver it’s more affordable than gold and honesty I think if you can spent $100 and over on a piece but can’t afford solid gold you should just get sterling silver. The tarnish is no problem if you got a polishing cloth made for silver and I actually enjoy polishing my piece and seeing how much more shiny it is after wards.
Yes sir there is a liquid cleaner for silver also that works good I use liquid and rinse then the cloth for a finishing touch on all my italian silver chain, bracelets and pendants and they shine harder than any of my italian gold chains by a long shot.
True
silver doesn't really tarnish if you're wearing it all the time, I have a chain I've worn for 7 years and it hasn't worn down or tarnished at all.
Bet if you take it to a jeweler to get it cleaned for 10 bucks you'll see the difference, I have a silver cuban link and rings and I took them to get polished and I couldnt even recognize them
Most of my pieces are sterling silver. I do like the looks of it. I wipe it with a white cloth when I take it off and I have some pieces that are 20 years old and they still look nice. There is some tarnishing with them but they still look really nice. The tarnishing does add some interesting looks to the piece. I kind of like the small amount of tarnish they do have. It is something you have to take care of over time. It requires more maintenance than gold but it isn't bronze which is a total pain in the back side to keep looking nice. I have a few pieces of hand crafted bronze jewelry, bracelets, and I have to clean them every week to keep them nice looking. Silver I might have to do something to it once a year, if I wipe it down after use.
@Zombie Eric Harris @JACOJE LYNX Apparently I had my comment removed. If the moderator needs to change it, take the link I posted in there out that links to what I had purchased. I was only giving it as an example, not as a product endorsement!
Love gold but I we gotta start appreciating the silver metal. I’m buying more soon.
If u only think silver tarnish u haven't been in the jewelry game long enough cause gold also can tarnish
silver rules
Sterling silver does tarnish but you can polish it up. I sell Sterling silver and have for 8 yrs. Tarnishing is normal and can be cleaned up with a tarnishing cloth or just plain soap and water.. the more you wear your pieces, the less they tarnish too..
Seriously I love silver as a nickel allergic it's a personal preference next to gold.
@@lisalittlejohn7059 would you say silver last longer than stainless steel 316 ?
@@angelbluerider9588 they are two different types of metals. Stainless steel is a stronger metal. However both metals should last a lifetime. Stainless steel will dull after time. Sterling silver will always remain shiny with a polishing cloth. Hope this helps answer your question.
@@lisalittlejohn7059 tarnishes less if you wear it more? what why’s this?
silver is a great metal I believe it's the most reflective precious metal. the elephant in the room is really the tarnish. the tarnish seems to compound so better if the piece is cleaned regularly. for a white metal I would go silver or platinum over white gold as you would have to get it replaced over time. yellowed-white gold is not a good look. It all comes down to taking care of your jewelry. keep up the good work!
+hiphopmuzik truth!!!!
Ive had my silver chain for quite some time and it rarely tarnishes. I work construction so its always exposed to the elemants and sweat and i never take it off. The only real cleaning i give it is in the shower with a small rag and some shampoo. It works really well
what kinda chain do you have , i also work in the construction field and was looking to get a chain to wear regularly
thanks
@@jeffryt1434 i have a 6mm solid .925 silver curb chain. Honestly best chain ive ever owned very strong and sturdy and it rarely tarnishes. I rarely ever take it off. If you get one make sure its a solid and not a hollow. A solid curb chain is one of the strongest you can own
Where did you get the chain from??
@@camachoxvi8356 he probably got it locally, you can easily get a concave curb or flat curb in any jewelry shop that’s sterling silver
I have a 26 inch diamond cut sterling silver Figaro & it shines almost as bright as my 14k 5mm gold rope but I get a ton of compliments on both pieces you can’t go wrong with either
Y’all just need to find a place that sells it cheap not from the mall they charge 500 for a chain I got for 50
Silver is literally so easy to clean every once in a while I’ll throw my necklace and bracelet into a bowl of boiling water and baking soda and it turns it bright white again almost instantly but it typically takes months and months or something like baiting in sulfur rich water (when the water filter is over due lol) for them to tarnish anyways. One of my favorite metals.
Love 925 silver rings or chain and gold... Better then plated
Does 925 silver chains last ?
DFlowetry yes
I love both silver and gold.
The silver u talk about tarnishing is the same silver they put into ur gold piece dont ack like gold ain't got things mixed into it if u ask me gold is mix with more metals than silver
Just use pure .999+ silver, it will not tarnish under regular use. Use arc weld to keep the rolled or hammered pieces strong and forget about dealing with solder tarnishing and torch softness anymore.
I always just felt like silver fits my self better. I can’t really pull off the gold, im happy with my sterling silver figaro
I love silver I clean all mine with toothpaste and it shines beautifully every time great video by the way
Toothpaste can't beat baking soda + foil + hot water. Works like magic. Toothpaste? Tried it and it's not much helpful.
@@cathaaaa7236 i don’t like toothpaste as it tends to scratch
Literally polish my silver once a month takes 5 minutes and it looks brand new 😂😂😂 you literally that lazy 😂😂😂
No I just like more valuable things ;)
JACOJE LYNX fair play if you can afford it. I was gonna buy me a gold plated chain but watched your videos on it and decided its better to wait until I can afford the proper ting
JACOJE LYNX do you nort sell silver? commenting like this is saying dont buy silver
I swear
@@jacoje It's because Jacoje likes to buy and sell quality. With over the top quality you worry less. Silver is nice but if your a busy person 24/7 with a busy life, noone has time to clean silver and worry about tarnishing. Jacoje owns and runs a company, hes too busy to have to worry about cleaning his jewelry too often. ;)
Silver looks good on everyone. gold isn't for everyone, most end up looking like decadent hip hop singers.
Joyas Alexander USA sells sterling silver jewelry from Mexico and offers free cleaning if you purchase locally in the Chicagoland area. Have Several pieces from him and they still look like new. BTW I respect your hustle bro. Glad your still in business.
To be honest man I just bought 3 mm 22 inches silver chain and it is Looking even better than white gold and it’s very extremely simple to clean with baking soda
Silver can be refurbished with boiling water, baking soda, & foil anyone who owns silver knows it will tarnish but you can easily refurbish it at home
Quality Silver is very beautiful and can be kept that way with polishing :) It is definitely worth buying!!
Yeap, Tiffany and Co.
I just had an old piece that hasn’t been worn in 13 years it sat in a drawer when I took it out it was black I dropped it in some silver cleaner then gave it a quick polish it looks brand new again!
what about argentium silver? it's more pure at 96 percent and resists tarnishing...why isn't it way more widely used?
Argentium is tricky in a few ways when it comes to soldering, annealing and polishing. This is from someone that works handmade jewelry. Wonderful silver alloy when worked properly. The price hovers neck and neck with sterling and fine silver bullion. I'll be working with it soon. I cant wait. Its supposed to be brighter than platinum when polished correctly. Figaro chains is what I'll dabble in when I do Argentium.
I love both - gold and silver.. I keep my silver in a special silver keeper boxes and they don't tarnish at all or very very little. I prefer designer's sterling . My favorite designers are Scott Kay and Michael Dawkins.
+oldpalmcity definitely some good silver pieces out there and they do hold up well if you take care of them.
Good jewelry metals = platinum, gold, silver, and stainless steel.
Fun fact if you wear your jewelry regularly it won’t tarnish silver or gold the UV sun rays prevent it from tarnishing
I love silver. You just need to commit to clean your jewelry regularly I mean even gold
Bashing silver but not stainless?
stainless is put of the question only thing that should be used for is your knife and fork
Stainless steel is not a precious metal
Stainless steel is not a precious metal. As affordable as silver is, I really cant see any reason why someone would want a piece made of stainless steel. Makes no sense
Just clean mine. Not a issue
Do sterling silver brother water and baking soda paste routine clean you will make a lot more money and you can use this paste on your gold and diamonds to and stainless steel just don't use on a herringbone piece of jewelry because the paste will harden up I have found the cheap way might be a little effort but it's cheap 4 sterling silver to never tarnish when bought new or if not severely tarnished to Grey used and a little aged baking soda and water made into a paste just don't put on herringbone jewelry because of the herringbones likeliness to kink up because the paste will harden up
I think silver and gold are such different colors it's hard to compare. Like which do you like, blue or red? I like silver because it looks good on me. So, it's an easy choice.
Argentium sterling should work if you're worried about tarnishing.
So true I have pieces of slivers I haven't worn it in awhile just
Sitting there I pulled out last week to clean all my jewelries. A couple of my piece was black like deep black. Then I didn't know why it does that since i haven't worn it awhaile(2 years) now I know. I don't want ot invest in slivers anymore rather White gold and solid 18k or 24k only. All that money I spent on Slivers I could've bought valuable jewelries. Just waste money. I might just take the stone out from my sliver bangle and throw the bangle away.
bro as long it’s pure silver rhodium, your good 😌 i’ve had mine for 3 years and it still look good as brand new. i never had problem with it
925 sterling silver finished in rhodium?
Pure silver rhodium???
The only thing with gold is that if you keep it for 2 to 3 yrs it would double its price or even triple and thats what i like about Aurum.
Yeah I do silver videos. I’m the silver version of Jacoje
Ypur page looks interesting
Its such a shame silver is so cheap its such a beautiful metal but just because its cheap certain ppl avoid it like the plague because its beneath them
Lol it’s just like anything else people want the best of the best it’s just like with scooters people don’t like Chinese scooters because they’re cheap people rather buy Japanese scooters because they’re like gold in Chinese bikes are like silver people always gonna want namebrand the most top-of-the-line stuff I’m pretty sure you do too you don’t wanna put anything in your body just like putting plastic earrings in your ear that’s not real jewelry can Give your body keloids if it’s sensitive so yes having the best of the best is good because if it’s pure just like your skin and body is pure in made from the earth it won’t affect it especially if you clean and take care of it
It is worth buying my mom bought me small silver chain and I really like it.
Its a gift from your mom why you concerned
For everyone, please weigh in and provide some reputable places that sell good silver pieces (chains/pendants)
It’s actually nice to have to clean it, let’s you know shit real
Bro silver looks sexy af. It’s more flashy and the weight feels good on the neck.
Yea looks flashy but the real white gold be glistening on your neck and not just bright af in person difference is crazy in person
Silver jewelry, fine jewelry is expensive. But cheaper compared to gold, and if we base everything on scrap value. We all are being ripped off. I bought a tennis bracelet 7.5" in length by 5mm set with white sapphires for $70; the scrap value is guarantee less than $20 dollars, and a Cuban link bracelet in 7.5" by 8mm with pavé set white sapphires for $160 dollars with an estimate scrap value of less than $20. Do I feel ripped off for paying $230 dollars for less than $40 dollars worth of silver, yes I do. Do I regret buying them, yes I do. Do I know that $230 dollars could have gotten me 11.5 ounces of pure silver bullion at let's say $20 per troy ounce, yes I do. However, the caveat being that Swarovski sells a tennis bracelet in steel with glass stones for $160 dollars, and other sellers sell BRASS tennis bracelets with gold plate and CZs for $70-100 USD, and similar Cuban link bracelets again in BRASS, gold plated pavéd with CZs selling for $100-200 dollars. For something that is literally disposable, or putting your health at risk by buying Mystery Metal (cadmium) bracelets from Wish it is not only stupid, but real-real rip off. Do I love white gold and diamonds, I do. Was I looking to pay $3-5k for a tennis bracelet in 14k white gold and 2mm diamonds, and a Cuban link bracelet in 14k white gold with pavé set diamonds at $20-30k. Hell no, their scrap value is worthless, and it is a complete rip off. Am I ever buying, silver jewelry again? No, I got the the look it was a 1 time purchase, and never again. Do I know that it will tarnish. Yes I do, did that dampen my mood. Yes, it did. Did I see a ton of Haute Joallerie with diamonds set on oxidized silver, or oxidized white metals, or rhodium plated black. Yes, I did, and it looked lovely, so I accepted the fact that they will eventually oxidize to a beautiful shade of dark.
To help get rid of tarnish just do 1 cup boiling water to 1/3 cup of baking soda. In a bowl covered with aluminum. Leave the silver in the bowl of boiling mixture for about ten minutes. Basically reverses the chemical reaction of tarnishing, making your silver super shiny.
Really? I have deep tarnished ones I was planning to throw it a way( they were expensive)
I have a ton of silver rings, chains, pendants, earrings, etc. saved so much money. And shining like the sun. With the left over money I can buy more silver pieces with moissanite pave or baggutes stones and get on with my life. No need to upgrade to gold. Just stop being Lazy and clean your pieces!!!
I wear my silver and gold chains together.. I love silver
Use dishwashing liquid and baking soda boil the Silver and yuh good to go G that's how my silver shine 😎💯
I rock a silver curb link bracelet. It contrast nicely with my darker tattoos. I have a thin sterling curb link chain on the way to.
Where do you purchase from?
Its not hard to clean silver you know? Gold is sometimes too expensive for people which is why they buy silver. I have both in my collection, gold and silver.
In my experience silver tarnishing is mitigated by wearing the piece alot. Your body oils/clothes do the polishing.
I just watched this video trying to find out about the silver Figaro I have on. I found it about 15 years ago in the dirt I went ahead and washed it with warm water and it looked like a mirror just beautiful. I have never taken it off ever (even during showers, exercise and sleep),and it still looks like a mirror. It has the mark and says 925 Italy on all the clasps. I have never polished it, so why has my chain never tarnished?
I shower with my chains on as well. The daily cleaning with soap and water prevents the silver from tarnishing. If I remove my silver before I shower, then it blackens in three weeks. As soon as I start showering with it, it cleans up nicely again.
@@robertlakay88 really? Hmmm didn’t know that…when I shower is the only time my chain comes off but I wipe it with a silver polishing cloth prolly every other week
$3 bottle of jewelry cleaner is all you need to maintain silver I've been using the same bottle for about 4 years. Clean all my jewelry once a year on average just drop it in there for a dip pull it out rinse it off
After watching this video, I went on google & found out that some people tell their jeweler to make sterling silver jewelry, but instead of mixing copper as an alloy, they mix in platinum. It is more expensive then regular sterling silver (still cheaper than white gold tho) , but I heard that it tarnishes wayy less. I wish more people would start making this type of jewelry. Anyways, what do u think Jacoje?
+k Leon ya that's why I said other alloys/metals. It's more expensive to do so. I think people just want to buy silver cheaper knowing the fact it will tarnish
I wear gold/silver. I have a silver chain that I wear yellow/white gold pendants. And after finding out gold/silver can be an alloy. It's basically all the same.
Huh??
I wear my 4 mm 20 inch silver chain every day all day for over a year and my chain still whiter than ever didn’t tarnish at all
Gold is meant to stay in bars at its highest concentration. Oxidation in silver occurs mostly when it is machine stamped and not hand made because although it has a 925 stamp...that doesn’t mean it’s even 925. All of my jewelry is hand made and only silver and also rhodium plated. People make the mistake of keeping silver on in the shower. Yes, the playing costs a bit but only here in the states. I don’t know what the obsession with yellow gold is to be quite honest. It is a commodity. When I wear my chains, it’s all under my shirt and for me...just me. Gold is given in my culture in “guineas” or coins, or perhaps on small bars as wedding gifts. We do not wear them. It is the last course to cash in on when things go bad, and then it is meant to sell...not to show off.
I like watching channels like yours but Im so tired of hearing "pure this is too soft for this" its always been a lie from jewelers to make more money off selling the impure blended stuff and making more shitty pieces like 10k gold (40% gold) which shouldn't even be allowed as you're just buying 60% cheap materials and still paying a gold premium and being told it's an investment. Pure silver is amazing to see in person especially in rope chain form or as a nice raw chain link. The rare white shine it has compared even white gold is just unbeatable. Sadly everyone thinks of that darker sterling silver when they hear of silver and then go for white gold when they should be getting platinum or pure silver instead.
You are clueless
@@whereRbearsTeeth i literally make jewelry from pure metals. Youre just slow and gullible. Sorry.
@@SharkByteOfficial like I said, clueless.
@@whereRbearsTeeth like I said, you're slow. Here you are again, proving it.
@@SharkByteOfficial you should probably stfu before you make an even bigger f’ing idiot out of yourself than you already have with your original comment
Making a paste out of baking soda, or using ketchup or toothpaste and just rubbing the piece will get that tarnish gone. I personally love the patina though, aged silver looks great
I honestly prefer gold than silver but I really like silver a lot
fun fact, 925 silver is like 22.2k silver. Problem with silver chains is you're going to be paying $150 an ounce when the metal is worth $25 an ounce.
Depends what deal u get. Got me a silver chain today. 925 Italian. Decently thick links. Paid $30 cash for it
@@SamRetroGaming where

Silver does last even tho it tarnishes you can make it look brand new
Not forever tho after couple years and wear and tear it wont be like gold
@@edwincuevas4823 silver is known to be the shiniest metal, what do you mean not like gold?

@@immanuelesimonelli yeah bro i get what you sayin but silvers good and can last but its not on the quality of gold nor will it ever be thats all im sayin dont be sayin silver better then gold
@@edwincuevas4823 not saying that, you’re right gold is better in certain ways but silver in other resistance for example silver is harder and won’t deform as easy high quality gold is very malleable it can be bent very easily silver can’t, there’s pros and cons for both for certain it’s an opinion which is better me I like both the same I don’t prefer one over the other, if I haveto say which is nicest I’d say platinum, better than both its tough and has a great shine but prices will always vary and fluctuate with platinum I feel like it’s a good metal even to invest in
@@immanuelesimonelli yeah i get you i just like how gold look on my neck better than any
Love sterling silver, it goes well with the tone of my skin.
I'm poor the only jewelry I ever had was silver or gold plated
I've had all of my silver chains for more than 5 years and none of them have tarnished obviously. I have taken care of them throw them in some solution 30 seconds clean them with a rag like new every time
Silver is worth buying all you got to do to keep it from tarnishing routinely clean it with baking soda and water made into a paste you can either brush it in with an old toothbrush Wipe it in with a paper towel do that until you got a good crust from the paste let it air-dry rinse it off with water then wipe it dry with a paper towel do that routine with your silver say at least every two weeks to once a month it will never tarnish it will last you a lifetime to silver is worth buying as long as you keep it clean the paste works great with gold and stainless steel jewelry to yeah Silver's worth buying
I have a lot of silver I personally like silver, but the resale value is like horrible but I still wear it when it tarnishes I just take it back to the jewelry store I bought from and they clean it. I had some questions if u ever read this and have time to answer that me cool, thanks!
the thing about sterling silver also is it costs too much per gram and you won't ever get that money back. invest in gold and you will get that money somehow.
also, sterling silver wears away much much faster. gets scratches and loses its brilliance.
Agreed!
Anon Anon that depends, ask an actual economist, who knows stuff like this. instead of a jeweller, who wants to sell. economists will tell you that no jewelry is a good investment period. yes gold is worth a lot, but how do you think they make money on it? jewellers like to say they only mark up 25% and that when you need money you can get up to 75% of what you spent back. anyone who has been in that position will tell you that's simply not true at all
Anon Anon It's actually less than gold. Gold is more precious so it costs more. However I'd rather have gold cause of the tarnish factor on sterling silver

Hey so I’m looking for a silver Cuban link for a everyday wear and I can’t decide who/where to buy from so you have any recommendations?
Local jeweler that’s where I got my silver Cuban
I don't like the look of gold. I love the look of silver. I am a silver girl. I love to find gold to sell but as for wearing it's silver all the way.
The White Apple Just buy white gold
Mine never tarnish I just clean it no problem
Platinum seems to be the play but $$$$$$ maybe one day!…
Well, I dig both silver and gold, right now I can't afford a 12mm gold Cuban link but a silver one.. That's possible so it depends upon each person and there definition of "value". As far as tarnishing goes.. Aluminum foil, hot water and baking soda, easy fix.
You can clean your tarnished silver with boiling water baking soda and aluminum foil no need to take and have cleaned save your money..
love sterling looks better on my skin shine white gold just doesnt have the same bling as sterling love it
I like tarnish
+Jack Wills has a nice antique feel to it
The reason to use silver is because the silver looks good with shadows. I actually dislike shiny polished silver. Maybe just the accents being polished is probably my fav.
Can you do a platinum vid?
I wouldn’t say the tarnishing makes it not worth owning. Also pretty easy to keep up on.
The tarnish looks cool.
