"The most significant development to silver in centuries."
Inventing Argentium
Developed in the 1990s by Master Silversmith Peter Johns in collaboration with Middlesex University, Argentium Silver reimagined what silver could be.
Originally created to eliminate firescale in traditional sterling silver, the research led to something far more exciting - a revolutionary silver alloy with exceptional performance.

A Contemporary Precious Metal
By adding a small amount of germanium, Argentium Silver offers a unique combination of beauty, strength and versatility.
It's firescale-free, so there's no need for plating, making it easier to achieve a bright, flawless finish. It can be fused and laser welded with ease, is stronger than traditional sterling silver, can be heat hardened for added durability, and offers outstanding tarnish resistance. It's also hypoallergenic and responsibly crafted from recycled silver.
Whether you're just beginning your jewellery-making journey or you're an experienced silversmith, Argentium Silver makes creating more enjoyable, more reliable, and more inspiring. It's a contemporary precious metal for modern makers who want to create beautiful jewellery with confidence.
