Jump Rings: Sterling or Sterling Filled?

by Nancy Bailey.

I was hoping to get some feedback from my fellow jewelers on this subject. I was using predominately sterling silver jump rings with my chain maille when the cost was low.

Now that the price of silver is much higher, I’m starting to think about going with the silver-filled jump rings but not sure how potential buyers would like this.

Have any of your customers commented on this one way or the other?

I take pride in using high quality materials, but still want to keep it affordable.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
