Silver-toned has no actual silver in it nor is it plated with silver. It is a base metal that has a silver appearance. It often is either nickel or has nickel in it, so if you suffer from metal allergies, you should avoid silver-toned.
Silver-plated is a base metal with a very thin layer of silver over it.

These metals are blended to achieve a color, not a metal purity like sterling or 14kt gold. Silver or gold plated metal may be covered to a certain thickness with one of these precious metals, but underneath, the product has an unknown composition. This coating may also come off, completely changing the look of the jewelry. Silver or gold tone products are blended with whatever metals will achieve the desired color.

Made with an inexpensive base metal and plated with a layer of silver.
