Our Product Story
In its natural state, silver is soft, second only to gold in malleability. To increase its hardness and strength, it is usually alloyed (or fused) with another metal. Sterling silver is an alloy containing 92.5% silver and 7.5% of another metal, usually copper, and is often marked .925. In jewelry, where hardness is not as critical as it is in other applications such as tableware, purer silver may be used. In fact, some jewelry, particularly from Thailand, may be up to 99.9% pure and may be referred to as pure or Thai silver.
Leather is a natural material whose durability, texture and beauty make it one of the most popular materials on today's market. All of the natural range markings are visible - a subtle assurance that distinguishes real leather from imitation. The beauty of each leather item is enhanced by unique varying grain patterns and the subtleties of color and texture created by dyes and finishes. With time and use, leather products will mature and darken - giving them a rich patina.
