Just a note that enchanting the silver does not alter the price you will
get at a merchant for your jewellery. Note that the merchant might sell
the item to a player for less than you would sell it to them (i.e. the cost
of a non enchanted item).
When you're improving your skill and just intending to sell back the
jewellery, you should try to not enchant the metal. When you're making
jewellery to order, then go ahead and enchant away.
