The first is a simple bar that I had engraved using a font that seemed familiar and had engraved "Que Sera Sera ..." which means "whatever will be, will be."  It is the title of a song my mom used to sing to me when I was little and a concept that has now undoubtably become my mantra.

What is Oxidized Silver?

What is Oxidized Silver?

Oxidized Silver. What is it?

Oxidized silver isn’t exactly what it sounds like. Oxidizing silver is a process where an ordinary piece of sterling silver is mixed together with a liquid called liver of sulfur. The silver’s reaction to the liver of sulfur transforms the outer layer into a dark, charcoal color with little to no luster. This process is actually just an accelerated result of silver’s natural tarnishing process.

No big surprise here. The piece of jewelry that has the most significance to me is a piece I made. But the reason it is so dear to me was not there when I first designed it.
