SilberKlar water freshener on chain

SilberKlar — Water refresher on a chain made of 925 silver

A SilverClear water refresher utilizes the natural antibacterial properties of 925 sterling silver to purify water. The principle is simple: A silver rod or stick hangs from a chain in your water carafe and continuously releases silver ions into the water. These ions inhibit the growth of bacteria and germs—completely without chemicals, electricity, or filters. Our collection includes 13 water refreshers in various designs, all crafted from solid 925 sterling silver . Functional, elegant, and a striking addition to any glass carafe.

How does a silver rod for water purification work?

The antibacterial properties of silver have been known since antiquity. Even the Romans stored water in silver vessels to keep it fresh. The principle behind this is that 925 sterling silver releases small amounts of silver ions (Ag+) when it comes into contact with water. These ions disrupt the metabolism of bacteria and inhibit their reproduction. The water stays fresher for longer, tastes clearer, and is free of unwanted germs. The SilverClear water freshener hangs from a silver chain on the rim of the carafe—simply immerse it, let it work, and enjoy. No maintenance, no filter changes, no chemicals.
