“Liquid silver" jewelry, often called "liquid heishi" or "silver heishi", is made from real silver, specifically sterling silver. It's a style of jewelry created by stringing together many tiny, finely cut silver beads or tubes, giving the appearance of a flowing, liquid-like strand. It refers to the way the silver beads are strung together to create a fluid, flowing appearance, rather than a specific type of silver. Liquid silver jewelry is typically crafted from .925 sterling silver, which is a standard alloy of silver containing 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper).
