What is 925 sterling silver?
"925" means the metal is 92.5% pure silver, mixed with 7.5% of another metal for strength — the international standard for fine silver jewellery. It gives you real silver you can wear every day, with a bright finish that can be polished back to new whenever you like.

How to tell genuine sterling silver from silver-plated
Genuine sterling is solid silver all the way through, while silver-plated pieces are a thin silver layer over a base metal that can wear away. Look for a "925" stamp, real weight in the hand, and a seller who states the metal clearly. Glamon's silver collection is genuine 925 sterling silver, not plated. [CONFIRM: do your pieces carry a 925 stamp / any registration you display?]
Hallmarking standards in Sri Lanka
In Sri Lanka, standards for precious metals fall under the National Gem and Jewellery Authority (NGJA), and reputable sterling silver is marked "925" to show its purity. When buying silver, the "925" mark and a clear statement of purity are your best assurance of genuine sterling. [CONFIRM: mention your own NGJA registration / maker's mark here ONLY if verified]
How much does silver jewellery cost?
Sterling silver sits between plated fashion jewellery and solid gold in price — affordable real silver, with cost depending on the piece's size and design. See each product for its current price. [CONFIRM: typical price range]
How to care for & clean your silver (and tarnish)
Sterling silver can darken (tarnish) over time — this is completely normal and easy to remove. Wipe with a silver polishing cloth to bring back the shine, store pieces in an airtight bag or pouch when not worn, and keep silver away from perfume, chlorine and household chemicals. Wearing your silver often actually helps keep tarnish at bay.
