2024 Annual Cross, 11th Edition
Sterling Silver Christmas Ornament by Gorham
What is .925 Sterling Silver?
The Short Answer:
Sterling silver consists of at least 92.5 percent silver and 7.5% percent of other metals like copper, nickel, or both. The reason for this is Pure Silver or Fine Silver, is very soft and very malleable making it easy to damage or bend. Other metal alloys like copper or nickel are added to the silver to make a more durable piece.
All items sold by Silver Superstore as “Sterling Silver” contain at least 92.5% percent Silver and are stamped with either “.925”, “Sterling Silver”, or both.

What does " w/stamp " mean?
As of April 2022, Fortessa is no longer stamping their logo in their flatware pieces. We do have some stock left of the stamped versions. If you are looking to match your older, stamped, pieces you will want to select the pieces denoted with “w/stamp”.

Add an engraved silver hang tag to have a special memory or name included for an additional cost.
Gorham got its start in 1831 creating flatware when metalsmith Jabez Gorham began making coin silver spoons, which quickly replaced the traditional pewter. When he passed the business down to his son in 1848, it soon expanded its offering, eventually becoming one of the largest silver manufacturers in the world. To this day, Gorham is still an industry leader, with a collection that covers Christmas ornaments, baby cups, and more.
