Silver is known for its light weight, easy to mould property and also wide availability. There are metals like copper and iron, which also possess the same properties. But the matter with silver earrings is different. Silver is considered to be a passive metal. It does not react readily with air, water and other elements. Hence it does not corrode easily. This feature accounts for the long life of silver earrings. Basically, earrings made of other metals are not so much lustrous and they have to be alloyed with other metals to impart finesse to them. Silver, inherently, is a lustrous metal. It does not need the support of other metals to increase its shine. Earrings made of other metals, when comes in contact with water, can also infect the ear piercing. Silver opposes it and even the first ear piercing is also done with a silver earring in the form of a pointed nail. Silver earrings come in a variety of shapes, designs and fits. From dangles to hoops, strings to threads, hooks to hunks, gauges to clip-on, and many more. Every day a new design comes and it is first cut down or engraved on silver earrings. Silver earrings can even incorporate precious stones and heavy beads work which is otherwise very fearful to be done in remaining metals. Silver earrings, though safe and cool, should be kept with care. Constant exposure to dust and dirt can result in the loss or depletion of its luster. Sine it is easily moldable, it should not be handled tightly. Once the post or the clutch is bent or distorted, it will not fit into the ear piercing or even if it does, it will not have a firm grip in the earlobe. Always keep the screws of the earrings safe in a box. Without screws, there is no use of silver earrings. And also, whenever you are wearing or removing the earrings, keep them enclosed in cotton wrapping or a soft cloth cover. This protects them against damage and frequent touches from others’ hands. Choose silver earrings which suit your ear shape and size. Prefer those silver earrings which are natural looking and do not carry much of art work done on them. It hides the real beauty and finesse of the silver earrings. Silver earrings are a common thing now with popularity and great fan following. Nowadays, earrings called white metal earrings are also sold under the name of silver earrings.
