eautiful silver makes the perfect wedding gift
Newlyweds in the earliest
days of civilization used
silver utensils. These were
crude articles, to be sure,
nothing like the gleaming
silver pieces given brides
today.
But it was the beginning of
a tradition; nothing com-
pares to beautiful silver as
the perfect wedding gift.
Although sterling silver is
the standard of solid silver
and is the Brest you can
give, silver need not be later adopted and today is
sterling to be treasured. A . recognized throughout the
good quality, welldesigned world.
piece of silver plate can be Sterling is an alloy of 925
an elegant gift as well.
Sterling silver came first
in history. The term comes
from the word
"Easterlings't, merchant
traders who came to
England during the 13th
century. They paid for goods
with very fine silver, a
standard which England
parts silver and 75 parts
copper. Absolutely pure
sily,e�rr is too soft to be
durable..
Silver plate, on the other
hand, became popular in the
-early 1700s. It is basic white
metal which has been coated
or 'plated' with silver. The
heavier the plating of pure
silver, the better the quality
of silver plate.
When the bride of any
century or any year receives
silver, .her first thought of
joy is often followed by
visions of the hard work of
cleaning and polishing.
Certainly those first rough
silver pieces, as well as the
finest silver today, tar-
nished; because tarnish
collects from the air itself.
Today's bride, however,
doesn't need to worry about
polishing chores, because
Modern formulas not only
clean silver quickly, but
keep silver tamish-free for
many weeks at a time.
