Nowadays, in the streets and alleys, occasionally, some girls wearing ethnic costumes are selling "Miaoyin" and "Tibet Silver" jewelry. When they chat, they will listen to others saying "This is pure silver/foot silver."
All kinds of names interfere with our perception. You may be wondering, sterling silver, Miaoyin, Tibetan silver, Thai silver... What do you mean? Today, Sister Bao came to unravel the mystery of "Silver"!
What is sterling silver?
As the name implies, “sterling silver†is metallic silver with a content close to 100%. However, since silver is a particularly active metal, it reacts chemically with the sulfur in the air. Therefore, the term "sterling silver" commonly used in life generally refers to an alloy of 92.5% silver + 7.5% copper, which is internationally recognized. Sterling silver standard. Of course, there are also silver with 99% and 99.9% silver.

Miaoyin itself is also "sterling silver", which is the most important jewelry and wedding supplies for the Miao people. But now the "Miaoyin" is actually the main ingredient is copper. Its selling point is hand-made, beautifully patterned, rich in meaning... almost silver-free ingredients.
If the treasure fan just wants to buy a beautiful jewelry with good marks, the Miao silver jewelry can still be worn. However, Bao Jie does not recommend the use of jewelry with a wide range of contact with the skin to choose Miao silver, because it does not have the effect of silver (sterilization, allergy, poisoning, etc.).
What is Tibetan silver?
[Tibetan silver jewelry has no mark]:
Tibetan silver is the same as Miaoyin. Although it is named after "silver", it is actually copper. According to the Tibetans, Tibetan silver is the nickname of white copper (through nickel alloy). Originally in the Tibetan tradition, Tibetan silver should be 30% silver plus 70% copper, but because the silver content is too small, it is not welcomed by the market, so gradually 30% of the silver is gone, completely white copper.
