Perchè l'Argentium è l'argento migliore

Why Argentium is the best silver

To always offer the best quality to its customers, OpaleMio offers opal jewelry set in Argentium 935 silver. Argentium 935 is a new generation silver alloy, created in 1991 by master silversmith Peter Johns of Middlesex University after 10 years of studies, with the aim of eliminating the opacity caused by the oxidation of silver in contact with air.

Unlike 925 silver (or sterling silver), Argentium 935 contains a higher amount of pure silver, depending on the grade, and the element germanium, which makes it up to seven times more resistant to tarnishing. As a result, Argentium is brighter, whiter, and maintains its luster over time.

Argentium 935 is also hypoallergenic and responsibly produced from recycled silver.
