Sterling Silver vs. Stainless Steel: What’s the Difference?

  • Sterling Silver: Made from 92.5% pure silver, sterling silver is naturally softer, which makes it ideal for those with sensitive skin. It’s hypoallergenic and gentle, reducing the risk of irritation or allergic reactions. However, because it’s softer, sterling silver can tarnish over time and may require occasional polishing to maintain its shine.
  • Stainless Steel: A harder, more durable metal that does not soften over time. Stainless steel is resistant to corrosion and tarnishing, making it a low-maintenance option. While it’s tough and long-lasting, stainless steel may not be suitable for those with sensitive skin, as it can sometimes cause irritation or allergies, especially if nickel is present in the alloy.

Pros and Cons:

  • Sterling Silver Pros: Hypoallergenic, safe for sensitive skin, classic and elegant appearance.
  • Sterling Silver Cons: Requires more care, prone to tarnishing over time.
  • Stainless Steel Pros: Extremely durable, tarnish-resistant, requires minimal upkeep.
  • Stainless Steel Cons: May cause irritation for sensitive skin types, lacks the soft, luxurious finish of silver.

Features:

  • Hypoallergenic 925 sterling silver
  • Fits most standard stud earrings
  • Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear
  • Durable and long-lasting
