Hello Everyone,

    Just started using the recently raved about Argentium sterling and
    was wondering how you fine people pronounce it? Is it pronounced
    'argen-tium' as in 'Argentina' or argent-ium with the emphasis on the
    'gent'? I know I'm just a newbie but when speaking to potential
    customers I don't want to sound like one. Once when I was ordering
    some chrysoprase gemstones from Rio Grande I asked the
    representative how to pronounce it and she said, 'I'm not sure but
    this is how I pronounce it". Any replys will be helpful. Also, I
    appreciated all the great responses I received on the 'silver
    turning finger black'. I'm going to see my daughter on thursday and
    will relay the thoughts to her as well. 

    Stay warm to those of you braving the cold and stay well to all 

Sue in Ohio
