Additional information on Argentium silver: Argentium Silver was invented by Master Silversmith, Peter Johns at Middlesex University, London. His initial research concentrated on eliminating firestain in traditional Sterling silver, using the element Germanium. Germanium was also found to add further benefits, including tarnish resistance and heat-hardening properties. Argentium is a sterling silver alloy that is 1% purer than traditional sterling at 93.5%. (Traditional sterling is 92.5% pure.) It contains the metalloid germanium that gives Argentium silver more workable qualities than sterling, including: Firescale elimination High tarnish resistance Precipitation hardening and simple heat-hardening properties Increased ductility Increased thermal and electrical resistance (making alloys suitable for welding and laser forming) Environmental advantages (associated with not having to remove or plate over firescale)
