Description

Spiral Armband Sterling Silver is real silver 92.5. It features two large spirals. The spirals meet in the centre and depending on your arm size they can cross over or almost join up. This silver armband is a New Zealand inspired piece of jewellery.  Spirals or korus are a symbol of new beginnings, growth and learning. The koru, which is often used in Māori art as a symbol of creation, is based on the shape of an unfurling fern frond. It is an integral symbol in Māori art, carving and tattooing, where it symbolizes new life, growth, strength and peace.[2] Its shape “conveys the idea of perpetual movement,” while the inner coil “suggests returning to the point of origin”.[2]

Sterling Silver meaning

This Spiral Armband Sterling Silver is made from sterling silver and features a 92.5 stamp. This means it is 92.5% fine silver with no more than 7.5% of copper or other metals. This formula is internationally accepted and it gives sterling silver the hardness and the tolerance to work with. Anything higher than 92.5 would be too soft and tarnish too quickly. When you buy sterling silver from us, we can guarantee it is just that!

If you see the words silver plated, that means it only has a coating of sterling silver over another alloy. This will fade over time and is not able to be polished. Our sterling silver products are not plated but sterling silver all the way through– nothing but the good stuff for you!!

Sterling Silver care tips

To keep your sterling silver looking its best, use a silver polishing cloth or silvo on an old rag and give it a gentle rub. This will give your jewellery back its brilliant shine! Silver will tarnish from being exposed to air but will take a good six weeks to discolour. Items that are worn constantly will take a lot longer! To preserve the shine on your silver avoid contact with ammonia, alcohol, fingernail polish remover or turpentine. ALWAYS remove sterling silver jewellery while in natural hot pools because of the high sulphur content in the water. Do not use silver dip. Dip cleaners work for the first few times but it puts a layer on the silver and can discolour stones and shell. Toothpaste is also not a good idea as it is too abrasive.
