Silver

Silver
The premium material Silver which is for 92.5% pure silver is made in a proprietary two-step process. Specialized software and printing algorithms produces silver parts in thin layers with a resolution of 25 micron pixels. The results are silver parts with unmatched surface smoothness and details that exceed any other rapid fabrication process of metal parts.
The products are created using the lost-wax casting process using a high-resolution 3D Wax print of your design. After printing the wax model will be cast in silver and finished to get a shiny surface. We provide two levels of finishing: standard and glossy. Please note that only well-reachable surfaces can be polished! Click here to see more details on the process.
The sterling Silver is pure, clear and is extremely suitable for all kind of different jewelry and decorative objects for the home. This premium material is available in two different finishes Silver and in Silver Glossy. Keep a close watch on the design rules.

Multiple parts per file & interlocking parts
There is one handling fee for silver ($30 for silver, and $35 for silver glossy). Multiple parts per file is not allowed except in the case of natural pairings. For items like earrings and cufflinks, they will only incur one handling fee even though there are multiple parts in a file. For example, you have an earring or cufflink (2 parts in an STL), it will be priced at $35 handling fee (glossy) for the pair, or $30 handling fee (regular silver) for the pair. Please note though, this does only applies to natural pairings (like earrings and cufflinks), and this does not apply to earrings/cufflinks with more than 2 parts.
Also we will not be printing models with interlocking parts. It is very difficult to print and cast. We are developing and looking into new methods to help you achieve your needs though. But currently, models with interlocking parts will need to be redesigned.
