Materials
All RR Designs jewellery is made in-house with sterling silver. All chains, ear posts and findings are also sterling silver.
Silver in its purest form is too soft for most jewellery making techniques, so it is combined with other metals to create alloys. Sterling silver is the most commonly used alloy and is made from 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metal, usually copper. This increases its durability and strength making it much easier to work with.
Where possible eco sterling silver is used. Eco silver is 100% recycled, traceable and audited and has the exact same qualities as normal sterling silver.
