Silver-plated, fine silver, and sterling silver homeware items have become less and less common over time. This increase in scarcity has led to an increase in value. As of June 16, 2022, the average price of silver was $21.38 an ounce—close to an eight-year high. There once was a time when silver was given to newlyweds or passed down when children were born. These traditions are beginning to fade more and more, but why? Some shied away from giving silver because it was seen as too extravagant. Others found silver items too hard to maintain. If you’ve got silver items in your cupboards and cabinets, recent changes in the availability of silver could be your gain… but only if you can be sure your possessions are real silver. Even then, how do you know how to make an accurate estimate of value? For these reasons and much more, in this article, Sal at Judy’s Antique and Estate Jewelry of Fort Myers, FL wants to help you understand more about antique silver.
