Silver Wedding Band
Browse Silver Jewelry
Although gold has been the traditional precious metal that is exchanged at weddings, some
couples prefer to exchange a
silver wedding band. Silver is a great alternative to gold because
it is very durable, friendlier to sensitive skin, and less expensive. Pure silver is not
strong enough to maintain it's shape for long. That's why, silver is mixed with other metals
to create strength and durability. When shopping for sterling silver, be sure you check the
label and guarantee that it is 92.5% silver. Often times, other metals such as nickel are
covered in a thin layer of silver to cut costs. Although it may look like genuine sterling
silver, the silver plating comes off and must be replaced every couple of years.
