SILVER JEWELRY, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SILVER JEWELRY
The present invention provides: silver jewelry obtained using pure silver and a silver alloy, the jewelry having high hardness (HV) and and being such that a metal allergy, discoloration, etc., are unlikely to occur; and a method for manufacturing the silver jewelry. Silver jewelry comprising pure silver or a silver alloy having purity of 99.9 wt% or higher, wherein the silver jewelry and the method for manufacturing the jewelry are characterized in that when the Vickers hardness of the silver jewelry is set at 60 HV or higher, the value of h2/h1 is set at 0.2 or greater, where h1 is the height of a peak at which 2θ = 38° ± 0.2° on an X-ray diffraction chart obtained using XRD analysis of the silver jewelry, and h2 is the height of a peak at which 2θ = 44° ± 0.4°.
