As you have probably heard, Cooksons have withdrawn Eco Silver from their range. Basically all their standard silver is made with recycled fine silver and to charge extra for Eco Silver is perhaps a little cheeky.
However, Betts are producing a quality product using reclaimed x-ray plates to give an alloy with 935 parts per 1000. So, from now on we are going to use this as our Eco Silver. The good news is that it appears to be slightly cheaper, and will still assay as Sterling.
I hope you approve of this as it is a genuine eco product using recycled fine silver – no messing. We approve, just carry on as normal and we will use the new metal.
