An important note about the increased cost of silver: Silver has skyrocketed in cost in the past 24 months, beyond anything I have ever experienced or anticipated in my 30-year career. From Feb. 2010 until November 2011, silver (sterling is comprised of 92.5% silver) rose from $14.50/troy ounce to $34/troy ounce as of this message. The current increase in metal cost is more than I can absorb. All of the pricing on my website was based on silver priced below $14.00/troy ounce. Therefore, effective April 27, 2011, please add 40% to the price of ALL items on my website until further notice. This is a very conservative price increase in an effort to keep prices as low as possible during this economic recovery. If you would like for me to calculate the price, just place the order, and I'll email you the current pricing upon receipt of the order. Though prices have increased, sterling silver is an heirloom precious metal and my sterling work will be around for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Dee Sharp Designs are original, copyrighted works of art in solid sterling silver and will continue to increase in value compared to declining value for costume, plated, brass, and pewter items. Quality, especially now, is important to get REAL value for your purchase.
