Questions about silverplate chain

[joanne624]

Hi,

I'm thinking of using silverplate chain in my jewelry making. I understand that there are different qualities of silverplate, but I'm not familiar with them so I'm not sure what to look for when I purchase any -- Also silverplate beads and findings.

I'll be selling my jewelry so I'd like to purchase the best silverplate that I can. Please tell me about the silverplate that you carry.

Also, how do you care for silverplate in order for it to stay looking good and to last longer.

Thanks so much.
Joanne

Hi Joanne,

Here are some existing questions and answers on that topic. I think they'll provide more info than I can give you in a new reply.
* Silver plated chain disk & loop (footage) question
* Plated Chains: Brass, Steel, Base Metal? What's the difference?
* Gold plated chain tarnish (where I actually answered the silver plate question better than I answered the gold plate question)
