Don't be afraid of a silver plated bead!  A good quality plated bead is very similar in looks and feel to solid silver beads.  

Our Silver Plated beads are high quality Grade A double coated with genuine 925 sterling silver over white copper, making them economic versions of solid silver.

These are not the cheap thin coated beads over who knows what kind of mixed metal (Grade B & C).  White copper is the closest metal to sterling and is easy to work with.  A thick double coating of 925 silver offers all the shine solid silver beads have.  We are sure you will love our Silver Plated Pandora style Beads!
