Sterling Silver - This pendulum is made with sterling silver and contains no base metal parts. Sterling silver is a beautiful and durable alloy of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metal, which is usually copper. Pendulums made with sterling silver are far more sensitive to subtle energy vibrations than those constructed with base metals (alloys that use nickle, zinc, lead, and/or tin, which have low energy conductivity).
Caring for your sterling silver - When worn or used, sterling silver will gradually oxidize and develop a lovely patina - a nice warm glow accentuated by darkened (tarnished) areas. You can either leave it this way, or if you prefer a bright and shiny surface, gently polish with a treated cloth to remove the oxidation. Never use abrasive cleansers or expose to salts. Store in a cool dry place.
