At TORTUGA SEA- we simply love silver!
With its soft white glow, it is hard to beat the beauty of silver.
Many cultures identify with the wearing of silver and some of the oldest on earth believe that silver represents the Moon and also that it helps fight negative emotions and improves one’s dreams.
Our silver jewelry utilizes 925 sterling silver which is an alloy made from 92.5% silver and 7.5% of other metals (normally copper or nickel). Sterling silver is more robust and scratch resistant than pure silver making it perfect for jewelry.
Some of our sea glass jewelry utilizes 999 Fine Silver which is nearly pure 99.9% silver. Although it is softer it glows with greater brilliance and will not tarnish as readily.
To be more environmentally focused whenever possible, our silver chains and charms are made from recycled silver.
