Yay! Silver Filled Beading Chain. More affordble than sterling but still just as supple and beautiful. Works great with beading chain ends and crimp beads. Feel free to mix with sterling. Sold by the FOOT.
Yes...here it is...the all elusive silver filled we have been looking for! It is great and can be soldered and oxidized just like sterling. I have found it to be an excellent alternative to sterling given the rising cost of metals! This stuff does come in different qualities...this the higher quality .925/20. Meaning 1/20th sterling silver content (just like gold filled). The sterling silver layer is 1/20th or 5% of the material. It is a great low cost alternative to sterling and is more durable than silver plate.
Here is the accepted definition:
Silver-Filled is a metal material that is similar in construction to gold-filled. It consists of a layer of .925 sterling silver that is bonded to a white brass core consisting of a copper and zinc alloy...or you could just say sterling silver with a brass core
