Sterling silver is actually an alloy of silver which contains 7.5% metals like copper or iron by mass and 92.5% of its mass it silver. The system of denoting purity of precious metals is known as millesimal fineness and the standard sterling silver has a millesimal fineness of 925. Silver is an extremely soft metal to produce objects which serves some functions. So, silver is mixed with another metal like copper or iron to produce functioning objects. The origin of the term ‘sterling’ is still debated to this day and age. The Oxford English Dictionary mentions that the term has originated from the Old English term ‘steorling’ which means ‘little star’ because of the fact that early pennies of Norman origin used to have a small star symbol imprinted on them. Some obscure and obsolete hypotheses exist that debates the origin of the term. Sterling silver is most commonly used to make tools for eating like knives, forks and spoons.

There is a system of hallmarking in some countries that indicates the following things –
