Accessories are indispensable attributes of the image, which can complement the outfit or become its highlight. Some prefer bright and bright costume jewelry, while others prefer mostly precious metals. Especially popular are silver jewelry (due to its versatility and elegant appearance).

Features

The use of silver as a material for jewelry began from ancient times. It is known that they were worn by the rich merchants of ancient Rome. For a short time, silver was valued more than gold, since it is less common in its pure form. Used mainly to create bracelets and amulets, chains, as well as dishes and coins.

In modern times, silver continues to occupy a leading position in the jewelry industry. This material is distinguished by its elegant, but by no means pretentious appearance, as well as neutral color. Silver is suitable for people of any gender, age and status. Silver jewelry can be both a product for every day, and a luxurious evening (depending on the processing and combination with other metals or stones).

One of the undoubted advantages is an affordable price.

The most common is silver 925 or, as it is also called, sterling. In its composition there is a small percentage of copper, and various processing methods allow you to make brilliant or, on the contrary, matte textures.

Since ancient times silver has been attributed magical properties. It is believed that this is one of the best materials for creating charms from dark forces, and legends say that only it is a weakness for many mythical creatures. It is also called the "moon" metal, which has a special energy that gives femininity and elegance to the owner.

The disadvantage of silver is that with time and from the effects of the external environment, it fades and becomes polluted. Proper care and respect for the product help him to serve his owner for a long time.

Benefit and harm

Silver is known for its disinfectant properties, which in moderate quantities have a beneficial effect on the body. It helps to neutralize harmful flora, kills harmful bacteria, and also effectively fights intestinal and pulmonary diseases. These properties of the metal are known to many, so some use jewelry from it in traditional medicine, believing that bracelets will help reduce fever, earrings will increase the concentration, and pendant placed on the forehead will help relieve a headache.

However, silver belongs to the category of heavy metals, so its overabundance in the body adversely affects the work of the kidneys, the nervous and digestive systems. Accessories do not affect its amount in the body, so wear them safely, unless there is no personal intolerance and an allergic reaction.

Fashionable female models and types

Bracelet models can be divided into many categories:

  • stiffness;
  • thickness;
  • impurities in the composition.

Depending on the technology, stamped or cast (full metal) jewelery is obtained. It should be taken into account where this jewelry is worn. In addition to bracelets on hand, there are products on the ankles or shoulders.

Slave bracelet consists of a part that fits over the wrist, a ring on a finger, and a chain that connects these parts.

Bracelets are divided into soft and hard. In the first case, they consist of connected links, which allows them to be plastic. Rigid well hold a given shape, usually round or slightly flattened. Both can be thin or wide. The thickness of the first does not exceed a few millimeters, and in the second it can reach ten centimeters.

Combinations of all these characteristics among themselves make the model range diverse. Hoops and closed bracelets ring are rigid types. Thin models look good in a set of several pieces, and large ones are often decorated with ornaments.

Casual bracelets are mostly modest - to complement the image, but not to overload it. They are different types of weaving and rarely decorated. Youth and evening models, on the contrary, can be massive, multi-layered or richly decorated.

Thin soft bracelets with pendants are very popular. Some brands (for example, Pandora) provide an opportunity to independently choose various and sometimes symbolic charms, which are then attached to the base.

Another common type of decoration is engraving for the entire length of the ring or on a separate plate. On the surface they depict a drawing (for example, an infinity sign), as well as beautiful patterns, variants with names, memorable inscriptions.

Silver is in harmony with the stones, which give the bracelets more brightness and brilliance. Both the more affordable gems (for example, coral, agate, opal, citrine) and the rather expensive ones (tourmaline, ruby, emerald) are popular.

In the combined bracelets are used not only precious stones and minerals, but also other materials. Today you can find products with rubber inserts and enamel. You can often find a rope, leather with silver version. Different processing methods make it possible to produce products with blackening, gilded or mixed with other shades - pink, white.

There are many unusual bracelets that become original due to the shape, decor or overall concept. It is interesting to look openwork bracelets or those that take the outlines of some animals, such as snakes, panthers, horses. Wings, skulls, birds, planets, brand symbols also act as figures and images.

Bracelets can be made in the form of balls, which are often decorated with crystals or stones.

Often, bracelets are released in sets. You can buy paired products for yourself and your other half.

Another interesting option is a set of “week”, consisting of several decorations made in the same style, but differing in details - in color, size of stones, inscriptions.

Styles

The variety of styles in the accessories is large, each has its own characteristics, allowing you to create "tasty" images. Some of them are more popular and common than others.

Consider them in more detail:

  • Ethnic style is the trend of the season, so it is reflected in the decorations. Such bracelets have features characteristic of different regions. They are visible in silver processing, combinations with other materials and color combinations. Separately stand out ornaments in the Greek style, recognizable thanks to such ornaments as a meander, waves, palmet. Special runic symbols and geometric patterns are present on massive bracelets made in the Slavic style.
  • Features in the decoration of decorations impose not only cultural trends, but sometimes even religious. In our country, the most common are Orthodox bracelets, on which images of icons or engravings with prayers are found, “save and save.”
  • Recently popular style boho. It is characterized by massiveness, multi-layeredness and easy negligence. Along with silver, other natural materials are mandatory, for example, leather and minerals.The Gothic style is also widespread, in which large forms, relief, bright figured images, and bright details are inherent.
  • Vintage style is a combination of many fashion trends at once, which are united by the theme of time. Such products have a long history, as they are ranked as classic vintage only if they were created at least twenty years ago. Bracelets reflect current trends from different decades.

Types of weaving

Many soft bracelets are made of links, which allows them to be flexible and take different forms. The presence of chains makes actual different types of weaving, which can give originality to the ornament and make it more interesting.

The main types are divided into several groups:

  • Simple "anchor" weaving of consecutive oval links.
  • Crustacea, which is distinguished by the use of openwork, fantasy links. This includes, for example, twisted “rope” weaving and zigzag “snack” option.
  • The most difficult, but durable weaving "Bismarck." It uses fancy multidirectional rings. It has several subspecies - for example, an openwork “python” or “fox tail”, consisting of identical links.
  • Decorative weaving, which allows you to create the most unique products.

What hand are they wearing?

There are no clear binding rules that must be strictly followed. In many ways, it all depends on the situation, dress and even human characteristics. So, right-handers most often choose the right hand, and left-handers - the left. It is on the active arm that the bracelet is more noticeable. He is one complete set with the bag. If the product is massive, it is recommended to choose a less active hand so that it does not interfere.

The choice of hand depends on whether the watch is matched to the image. Since the rules of etiquette attribute them to the left wrist, the bracelet should automatically be worn on the right. However, if the decoration is thin and not very catchy, it can be put on the same hand as the watch.

You should pay attention to the choice of hands for the bracelet to those who wear rings. The rule that does not allow combining silver with other metals is not so important for the last season. However, many people prefer not to combine it with gold, therefore, opposite hands are chosen for such jewelry.

What to wear?

Silver bracelets will fit into everyday, business and even evening images. In the first two cases, concise models will be appropriate, and for any event you can make a choice in the direction of products decorated with precious stones.

Different types of bracelets will be appropriate in a particular style. Bright and massive fit to ethnic sundresses, long skirts, boho blouses, T-shirts. Thin and neat models, on the contrary, will look good with strict shirts, feminine tops, elegant dresses.

It should be remembered that the bracelet is worn on the wrist. To make it visible, it is not necessary to choose clothes with long sleeves. The ideal option is considered to be a short or three-quarter sleeve (even if jackets and jackets are present in the dress).

All jewelry should be combined with each other in style. With silver, mother-of-pearl and pearls, light gold, dark wood look most harmoniously. We should not forget about metal fittings on a belt, purse and shoes. Best of all, light metal and white are combined with a silver bracelet.If there are yellow details on the accessories, you should choose a gold-plated bracelet made of silver or wear one along with classic silver.

How to clean?

Silver tends to darken due to impurities of copper in its composition. This effect results from increased humidity of the environment, interaction with water and sweat, skin fat, as well as cosmetics and detergents. Peel the decoration easily at home. After leaving, it re-acquires shine and well-groomed appearance.

In jewelry stores, special tools are sold to clean certain metals, including silver. With the choice you should be careful, because not all of them are suitable for bracelets that have, for example, stones or inserts made of other metals.

You can clean the silver and improvised means. The best option is ammonia, in which the bracelet is soaked for ten minutes. Then it needs to be wiped dry with a soft cloth - for example, from the flannel.

Often used soda, as well as tooth powder or paste, but in this case, microcracks appear on the silver. They are invisible, but in the future lead to an even faster process of darkening.
