Is 925 sterling silver suitable for everyday wear and sensitive skin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Genuine 925 sterling silver is made from 92.5% pure silver alloyed with 7.5% \nother metals (usually copper) for strength, making it durable enough for daily \nwear while remaining gentle on most skin types. With basic care — avoiding \nprolonged contact with water, perfume and sweat — it can be worn comfortably for \nyears without irritation.

What makes an oval belcher chain different from other chain styles?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBelcher chains use uniform, rounded oval links connected in a continuous, \nslightly twisted pattern. This creates a smooth, even surface with a soft, \nrounded profile, giving it a classic look that's been a staple in fine jewellery \nfor over a century — one of the reasons it remains a top-searched chain style in \nsilver jewellery collections today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. How should I care for and store a sterling silver chain?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSterling silver naturally develops a light patina over time due to its copper \ncontent reacting with air — this is normal and can be polished away with a soft \nsilver cloth. To slow tarnishing, store the chain in an airtight bag or box away \nfrom humidity, and remove it before swimming, showering or applying lotions and \nperfumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Fits Into the Modular System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis oval belcher chain acts as the base layer of your modular setup.
