I’ve recently gotten some silver plated settings for my pretty vintage jewels – and I’d forgotten what a challenge silver can be to photograph! If it’s clean and shining (like these settings) – it reflects nearby colors almost like a mirror. Place the settings on a wood background – which is usually a good choice – and guess what? The silver looks tan, beige or bronze – the color(s) of aged brass! Well brass is wonderful – I use (and sell) a lot of it – but the point here is to show the silver! <\/p>\n

I’m working on it. The composite above shows some of the pics that worked<\/i> – and as you can see, those silver settings are highlighted by a lot of colors besides just “silver”. <\/p>\n

This is going to be an ongoing project – better pics, more silver (plated) settings, more silver all around – and more of a learning curve. So – stay tuned, this will be continued!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
