925 Silver Ring Diamonds Are Real?

In traditional weddings, diamond rings are using for engagement and marriage. The material of classic diamond rings is 18K gold / 14k gold with diamonds or platinum with diamonds.

So, will 925 silver be set with diamonds? We will tell you the answer to the following aspects.

What is 925 silver?

The sterling silver on the market generally refers to 999 silver with 99.99% or 925 silver with a content of 92.5%.

925 silver is the international standard silver. Because 999 silver is highly pure, it is very soft and rugged to make complex and diverse jewelry, but 925 silver can do it. The outer 7.5% of 925 silver is copper, which improves silver's gloss, brightness, and hardness.

Therefore, the essence of silver is soft. It is not suitable if silver is used as a ring setting to set more expensive diamonds. It is not acceptable for expensive diamonds because the center stone is at risk of falling.

And the price of silver is relatively low, and from this point of view, silver and diamonds do not match.

But 925 silver has its irreplaceable advantages.

The 925 sterling silver ring is delicate;

Its natural tone blends beautifully with all skin tones.

Also hypoallergenic, so preferred by people allergic to nickel

Silver comes in various designs and styles and works well with colored gemstones while pairing perfectly with moissanite.

Gold plating includes alloy, real gold, white gold, 14k gold, and 18k gold.

Like precious metals, these materials are excellent in terms of material and hardness.

But if you are looking for high-end diamond jewelry, you must buy platinum,14k gold, and 18k gold jewelry.

Now, most expensive diamond rings that look like they are set in silver but in fact, they are set in platinum,because the two material looks like same from color.

But in terms of practicality and cost-effectiveness, I recommend using 18k gold to set diamonds.

Because 18k gold is cheaper to maintain and easy to recycle in 2nd hand market.

Platinum is rarely recycled, and recycling prices are low. That is to say, it is expensive to buy but not easy to handle.

If the ring needs to set with a large diamond, the size and weight should test first. Most larger diamond and gemstones are set in platinum, 14k gold, or 18k gold, which is more harder, durable, and stable than the silver above.

 Are 925 silver ring diamonds natural?

Of course, there are still very few people in life who can afford expensive diamond rings. Because that's a lot of expense, many couples will consider buying some smaller or cheaper diamond rings. Therefore, more and more couples choose to use 925 silver inlaid with smaller diamonds, and even more and more couples choose 925 silver inlaid gemstones as their first choice for rings.

You can choose 925 silver as a gift to inlaid moissanite as a substitute for a diamond ring. Because the brilliance of moissanite is comparable to the diamonds, moissanite is a good choice for gifts as a replacement for the ring.

So, now you understand that 925 silver is seldom set with diamonds.
