  • Improved Tarnish Resistant Sterling Silver
    Improved Tarnish Resistant Sterling Silver Michael T. Roche BHP Billiton, Townsville, Queensland, Australia Frank E. Goodwin International Lead Zinc Research Organization, Inc., Research Triangle Park, NC, USA Improved Tarnish Resistant Sterling Silver ABSTRACT A cooperative research program to determine means of delaying tarnishing of sterling silver has been organized by the Silver Research Consortium, a group of silver producers and users seeking to improve uses of silver by carrying out research. Whereas in the past most approaches to improving tarnish resistance have been based on silver alloying additions, this project is taking a scientifically based approach to reducing the rate of tarnishing by use of thin coatings. The general technical approach being taken and an overview of the Silver Research Consortium are given. INTRODUCTION: The principal sterling silver alloy, 92.5% Ag-5.7% Cu, has been used for silverware and jewelry since the 14th century. Alloying with copper strengthens silver and allows it to be used for these items, but it has always been susceptible to tarnishing. Tarnishing is a surface discoloration and mainly results from the formation of silver sulfide, Ag2S, although other compounds have been recently identified which contribute to tarnishing.[1,2] Although tarnishing is not important for industrial applications because it does not change the electrical or contact resistance properties of silver alloys, it is important for applications where appearance is important. Reflecting this importance, many attempts have been made over the years to develop tarnish-resistant alloys that meet the 92.5% silver purity standard which is required if the alloy is to be called “sterling silver.” Some of these have reached limited commercialization, but all add cost and complicate the manufacturing process for sterling silver.

  • Care and Cleaning of Silverplate & Sterling Silver Cutlery
    Care and cleaning of Silverplate & Sterling Silver Cutlery HANDWASHING Wash your cutlery in hot soapy water, using a sponge or nylon brush, as soon as possible after each use. Use a ‘mild’ detergent and avoid any containing lemon or vinegar. Rinse in hot water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not allow to ‘air dry’. Store in dry conditions DISHWASHER Cutlery manufacturers recommend: DO NOT overload the cutlery basket. Pack cutlery with the handles down so that the knife blades, spoon bowls and fork tines are uppermost, ensuring that there is room for water to circulate. Separate knives from other cutlery components DO NOT mix metals, as different metals can ‘react’ with each other in the dishwasher, causing a stain ie: ensure that aluminium and stainless steel are separated from each other. Do rinse well as soon as possible after each use, before placing in dishwasher Do use correct quantities of dishwashing detergent and Rinse Aid as recommed by the dishwashing manufacturer. Detergent is highly chlorinated and can cause dulling and discolouration of stainless steel if excessive amounts are used. The long washing and drying cycles of dishwashers mean lengthy periods in humid conditions, which can encourage corrosion Do remove cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as possible after the cycle has finished and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth if water remains. Store cutlery in a dry environment Xylo or bone handled knives should NEVER be washed in the dishwasher. The handles should NEVER be placed in hot water as they will discolour POLISHING YOUR SILVERPLATE AND STERLING SILVER CUTLERY Tarnishing is the oxidation that occurs when silver comes in contact with acid foods such as Lemon, Vinegar, meat juices etc.

Taylor Submitted to the Department of Materials Science and Engineering on May 3, 2013 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Archaeology and Materials ABSTRACT In both the Andean zone of South America and in Mesoamerica, copper-silver alloys were important in the production of thin, silver-colored sheet metal artifacts. This thesis examines the mechanical and physical properties of the copper-silver alloy system that are important to understanding why copper-silver alloys became central to the metallurgies that developed among prehistoric societies of the Andean zone and Western Mexico. These properties include their range of malleability, the microstructures behind their toughness, and the recrystallization and annealing behaviors that led to their development of silver-enriched surfaces. To determine these properties, a series of cold rolling, cold hammering, and annealing experiments were performed on five Cu-Ag alloys and pure copper.

  • Casting with Argentium® Silver 935 Pro
    Sharing your passion for making jewelry. Products. Service. Know-how. Casting with Argentium® Silver 935 Pro Eddie Bell, Vice President of Manufacturing; Rio Grande, Inc. Introduction Rio Grande regularly casts findings using Argentium® Pro 935 silver grain and we have enjoyed excellent results with this innovative metal. Here is a look at some of our methods and techniques for ensuring dependably good cast parts. Quenching After casting, we hold the cast flask for 15 minutes and then quench in water. The cast tree comes out of the investment nice and white. The as-cast hardness of the Argentium® Silver sterling is a little softer than traditional Ag-Cu sterling, which makes the parts easier to clip off the tree. We have found that, by quenching after 15 minutes, there are no difficulties such as cracking, and we can age-harden the metal without performing a solution anneal. The investment is still hot enough that devesting is easy. Casting Parameters We use the same casting parameters for traditional sterling and Argentium® Pro 935 (except for quenching time— traditional sterling flasks are quenched after only three minutes). Our casting temperatures are uniformly lower than those recommended for traditional sterling. I think alloy manufacturers fudge the recommended metal and flask temperatures to help compensate for inadequate sprue size; they get many complaints about incomplete filling from casters who followed the recommended temperatures but neglected to consider the influence of their sprue system. If a pattern does not fill completely in Rio Grande's processes, we adjust the feed sprue until we get the results we need rather than increasing casting temperatures for a surface to volume ratio category item.

  • Gorham Silver: Designing Brilliance 1850–1970, May 3, 2019‐December 1, 2019
    Gorham Silver: Designing Brilliance 1850–1970, May 3, 2019‐December 1, 2019 When Jabez Gorham founded a small workshop a few blocks from here in 1831, handcrafted silver spoons were a principal product of his business. When the RISD Museum acquired a Gorham spoon in 1909, it marked the beginning of a collection of works by the Gorham Manufacturing Company that today comprises nearly 5,000 objects and design drawings. This exhibition—assembled from the museum’s collection with important loans from other institutions and private collections— illuminates the heights of Gorham’s industry, ambition, artistry, technology, and innovation. The Gorham Manufacturing Company was an inimitable force in the city of Providence and around the globe, boldly growing into the largest silver company in the world. Gorham created some of the most exceptional works ever made in silver, forever changing the landscape of American decorative arts. The company also profoundly changed Rhode Island by training and employing generations of highly skilled workers and, like many local industries, leaving behind a complicated legacy. Visit the Gorham Workbench in this gallery and access the Soundwalk tour (information at right) to learn about the company’s impact on the community, labor practices, and the environment. Spanning 120 years, the objects on view here testify to the undiminished brilliance of Gorham’s workers as they collaboratively translated ideas into gleaming new realities, the restless innovation of the company’s leaders, and a dazzling array of aesthetic styles.
