Hello All:

    Is there such a thing as copper less sterling silver that is just as
    hard as sterling silver?  A friend of mine - another jewelry was
    telling me that Tiffany has always used a copperless alloy for
    sterling silver that is not deox silver and is just as hard as
    regular sterling and does not tarnish as easily as regular sterling. 
    If this is true, where can you get this magic alloy from?? I heard of
    Tiffany Gold alloy from a caster in NYC but never Tiffany Silver
    alloy.
