Nickel silver gets its name from its silvery aesthetic appearance, but there is no elemental silver content at all. It is a metal alloy, usually combining copper (60%) with nickel (20%) and zinc (20%).

Nickel silver is used for various applications, such as a base metal for silver-plated silverware, keys, coins, costume jewellery, making musical instruments. It has high corrosion and electrical resistance.
