Earrings

Made to sell online years ago; 100% 925 sterling silver, with Swarovski clear aurora borealis butterflies and smoky opal crystals.

Jewellery out of precious metals are more difficult to sell, as fine jewellery has to be hallmarked if over a certain weight. This pair of earrings are hallmarked with a extremely tiny 925 on the ear hooks, 925 being the hallmark of sterling silver, the ratio of the metals used.

Silver over 7.78grams is legally required to be hallmarked, besides would you purchase it without a hallmark? Hallmarking will obviously set you back even more, since it has to be laser etched.
