Like to wear jewellery?  Everyday? Just for special occasions? Use it to accessorize?  Wear it because it’s vintage or because it’s ultra modern? Or simply because you like it?  Whatever your reasons I‘m sure you will agree with my top five as listed below and maybe think of many more of your own!

1) I choose sterling silver jewellery because it can make a wonderful gift. I love to give presents and sterling silver jewellery is equally suitable for young and old.  There is an endless choice of pieces to suit every budget and occasion.   The rise in popularity of internet shopping means that you can browse many suppliers at your leisure.  Find a reliable internet store that is easy to navigate and has secure payment facilities and a fair returns policy.  Using the internet you can shop at your convenience and make the most of the competition on the World Wide Web.

2) I choose sterling silver jewellery because of the huge variety of options in size and look.  Being such an easy material to work with silver can be used to make many many different pieces.  From a simple silver band or plain ring or bangle to the ornate evening wear choker or pendant, from the smallest of stud earrings to huge hoops or drops encrusted with stones.  Sometimes in fact the choices can be almost overwhelming.

3) I choose sterling silver jewellery  for its timelessness. It’s ability to outlast fads and fashions. You can spot similar items being worn by teenagers supremely conscious of fashion and yet also by more senior ladies who have kept treasured pieces over a long period of time because they have never gone out of fashion.  Invest in a piece that you like and feel comfortable with and I guarantee you’ll never get bored with it and you’ll never be behind the times.

4) I choose sterling silver jewellery  because in comparison to the likes of platinum and gold it is relatively inexpensive.  Even keeping to a budget you can purchase so much more for your money – no agonizing between the earrings or the bangle, but get them both and the rest of the set too.  Over time you can build a collection of jewellery for all occasions, meaning you are never short of choice and can always have the perfect accessory for every day and for special occasions too.

5) I choose sterling silver jewellery  because, whilst like all jewellery it is delicate and should be looked after, it is so easy to care for. Its care shouldn’t be too time consuming or difficult.  If it gets wet, dry it - as soon as possible, keep your jewellery away from chemicals – put it on after your deodorant, perfume and makeup.  When you are not wearing your pieces wipe them with a soft cloth and store in a suitable box.  What could be easier?  For really tarnished pieces you can easily come by silver cleaning cloths and solutions.

So, why do I choose sterling silver jewellery? Five reasons: It is great to give as a gift. It allows unlimited options in the looks that can be created with it. It is timeless and transcends fashion. It is affordable and easy to care for.
