Sell 925 Silver Flatware and 985 Silver Tea Set | Precious Metal ...

Hi Curtis,

We will give different returns based on the purity of your silver items . Anyone that puts all of your silver on one scale and gives you a flat rate for the lot is probably offering much less than what your items are worth. Since 985 silver is not as common as sterling silver or 925 silver, we might run some tests will ensure the purity of the material. Is there a marking indicating the 985 purity?

We see 985 silver used mainly in fine jewelry product lines. The stamp 985 means that your items are 98.5% pure silver and then alloyed with 1.5% of some other metal.

Typically we can return 75% of the fine silver value back to you for fine sterling silver pieces. Today silver is making headlines for breaking through $36 USD per ounce for the first time in 30 years. And because you have pounds of silver, your items should give you a fairly large return.

Handcrafted silver jewelry line adorns Columbia

&Mdash; Remember your grandmother’s sterling silver tea set?

Now, you can wear it – or at least its essence – on your arm.

A new jewelry line available in South Carolina only at Sylvan & DuBose on Harden Street harkens back to a time when people used repoussé silver flatware, hairbrushes and even cuticle pushers.

“It was part of your everyday lives,” said Carolyn O’Keefe, managing partner for Repousse’ Jewelry, based in New York and Baltimore. “It was a touch of elegance.”

Artist Michael Galmer created the jewelry line nearly two years ago, handcrafting each piece in the repoussé style – which means a pattern is pushed out from the back and then the piece is engraved on the front to create a unique design.

The line recently was introduced in Columbia, one of only 10 cities where it is currently available at a retail store. The rollout is slow because the jewelry is not mass produced.
