Hill Tribe silver is fashioned into a snake shape that coils around your finger, detailed with hammered surface and leaf stamp at either end. This serpent-inspired ring is comprised of one long piece of silver wrapped around and overlapped at the top, for a multi-band look. Hammered patterns extend the way around the back. This piece is a classic Hill Tribe silver ring, with its hand-wrought details, hand-stamped patterns, antiqued and low-sheen finish.
Thai Hill Tribe Silver has a higher silver content than sterling (92.5%), and is typically 95 - 99% pure silver. The higher silver content makes the silver slightly softer and therefore, easier to pound and shape.
If you want your jewelry to last, remember the old saying: “Jewelry should be the last thing you put on, and the first thing you remove”.
Keep it clean by keeping it away from chemicals, lotions, perfumes, excessive humidity, and protect from heavy, hard wearing activities such as sports, heavy work, or vigorous exercise. The main culprits that shorten the life of your jewelry are: never taking it off, wearing it while sleeping, wearing it in hot tubs and pools, and while playing sports. Store in an airtight container such as jewelry box or zip lock baggie while not wearing. When storing long term, make sure to clean and dry thoroughly before storing.
