Round Otter Necklace in Sterling Silver With Darkening

Sometimes my customers send me requests to explain why silver rings slightly turn the finger green or black. That is why I would like to inform you when the ring turns your finger green or black either because of a chemical reaction between acids in your skin and the silver or a reaction between another substance on your hand, such as a lotion and the silver. You'll greatly reduce the chance of any ring turning your finger green if you take care to keep soap, lotions or any other chemicals away from your finger. Remove your silver jewelry before bathing or swimming, especially in saltwater.

Please always stay one step ahead of tarnish and take care of your silver jewelry on time. Often wash your jewelry in hot soapy water and rinse with hot water. Dry it thoroughly with soft flannel or cotton cloth. Or you may want to dry it with a silver Butler cloth which has a special cleaning agent built in.
