Sterling silver is composed of 92.5% silver alloyed with copper to strengthen it. Silver has one of the highest reflectivity of any metal, giving it unmatched brilliance, making it perfect for jewelry designs. Silver also has extremely high electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. Despite all these wonderful properties silver is relatively abundant and easy to extract from ore, so it is, at the same time, relatively affordable making it ideal for jewelry that will appeal to a many different buyers. Various forms of faceted cuts, in which the gem is given a number of symmetrical plane surfaces, or facets, are universally employed in the cutting of diamonds and are used extensively for other stones as well. The most common cut is the brilliant. In this cut the top of the stone is ground to a flat so-called table from which the sides of the stone slope outward to the broadest portion of the stone, which is known as the girdle.Sterling silver
