830 metal purity
by: Anonymous

Hi Joyce

what a lovely brooch! The green stone could be paste, or an imitation of an emerald. Natural gemstones feel cool to the touch. have you heard the old saying, "cold as stone" ? There's truth in this old adage. Bring the stone to your lips.

The number is the purity of the silver. This usually can be 925 (meaning 925/1000 pure silver which is equivalent to Sterling silver) or 830 ( a quality often called 'coin silver' in the US) which means 830/1000 pure silver and is often used in the Nordic countries.
