My bracelets are only Silver Plated which is what I was trying to tell the customer... not Sterling Silver.
Curiosity only question here, not trying to pick holes or anything mate....
What do you think your silver plating is is if it's not 'Sterling Silver'?
There's no other kind of real silver, only sterling silver!
I think you may be confusing the differences between SOLID and PLATED mate, but they're both Sterling silver.
The only other differences in silver is in its purity percentage with 925 being the purest form for jewellery purpuses or if it's been single, double or triple plated.
If anything is sold using the term 'Silver tone' then you know it's paint or some other form of plating that has no real silver content in it.
Silver TONE won't tarnish but it won't last more than 5 seconds either, but all forms of real silver will tarnish unless they've been treated with an anti-oxident after plating.
Bit of useless info for ya there mate lol.
