Braided solid silver bangle

Braided solid silver bangle

This braided solid silver bangle is a handcrafted piece of jewelry, handmade by a craftsman from the Karen tribes. It is one of our discoveries, during our last trip in the north of Thailand. This country is full of jewelry but rarely handmade. Only Karen jewelry, an ethnic group from the north of the country, is still made according to ancestral methods. The silver worked is of quality and the finishes of this jewel are perfect.

925 silver, the material of your bracelet

The silver used to make the jewelry can not be pure 100%, because it would be too soft. In order to work it is added one or more alloy metals, most of the time copper.

Silver jewelry, in Europe and in most countries of the world, is 925 silver. It is 1st grade silver, it has a minimum content of 92,5%. This is also called sterling silver, from the English Sterling Silver 925. Sterling silver, for example, is made up of 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. Sterling silver has been a category of silver for jewelry in many countries since the 14th century.

Thai money is often purer than the world standard. It often contains 95 at 98% money, which allows a different job of money. Because purer silver is softer and more malleable, Thai silver jewelry is usually thicker.
