Silver Judaica Filigree Charity box 3456 made in Israel by Ben Zion in Jerusalem. Very beautiful design made in sterling Silver Judaica. It glorifies every door. More Descrition: made from sterling Silver Judaica 925 Filigree: (formerly written filigrann or filigrane) (Also known as “Telkari” (the name given in Anatolia it means, “Wire work”) or “Cift-isi” (Meaning Tweezers work - Pronunciation: Chift-ishi) ) is a jewel work of a delicate kind made with twisted threads usually of gold and Silver Judaica. It is nowadays exceedingly common for ajoure work to be mislabelled as filigree. While both have many open areas, filigree involves threads being soldered together to form an object and ajoure involves holes being punched, drilled, or cut through an existing piece of metal. Measurements: Length : 1.5" Hight : 4.6"  Silver Judaica ? Sterling Silver Judaica is an alloy of Silver Judaica containing 92.5% pure Silver Judaica and 7.5% other metals, usually copper. The minimum millesimal fineness is 925. Fine Silver Judaica (99.9% pure) is generally too soft for producing large functional objects, and in Sterling the Silver Judaica is usually alloyed with copper to give strength whilst preserving the ductility of the Silver Judaica and a high precious metal content. Other metals can replace the copper, usually with the intent to improve various properties of the basic sterling alloy such as reducing casting porosity, eliminating firescale, and increasing resistance to tarnish. These replacement metals include germanium, zinc, platinum as well as a variety of other additives including silicon and boron. A number of alloys claiming firescale and/or tarnish resistance have appeared in recent years sparking heavy competition between the various manufacturers and their different formulations. No one alloy has emerged as an industry leader or standard and ongoing alloy development is a very active area.

Mammoth ivory, Elephant Ivory - real or fake?

There is always a fear that the ivory sculpture that you bought might turn out to be a fake, because as a layman you may not be able to differentiate between a clever replicas and real ivory. However, with experience in this field and handling nearly all types of ivory, it becomes easy to differentiate just by seeing it.

Even though pure ivory can be of various quality and types, the fake ivory is made from resins. The powder that is left after sawing/carving ivory or remnants from bone sculptures are not wasted but all added to resins, put into molds.

The sculptures are then cleaned and then dipped in dark hued stains that give them the brownish tinge. There is always a difference in weight between a resin ivory and real ivory as real ivory is very heavy...Read all article about your Mammoth Ivory fake or real?
