Summary
Silver jewellery care:
1.What are the properties of silver jewellery?
Silver is an unstable metal and can turn yellow and black due to external factors. When the air contains hydrogen sulphide, the surface of silver will lose its silver-white lustre, this is because the silver and the H2S in the air are synthesised into black Ag2S The chemical reaction equation is: 4Ag+H2S+O2=2Ag2S+2H20 The result of the reaction is that the surface of silver produces silver sulphide, because silver sulphide is grey-black, so as the reaction intensifies, the silver sulphide increases and thickens, and the surface of silver gradually changes from white to yellow to grey and finally to black. The colour of silver gradually changes from white to yellow to grey and finally to black.
2.How to clean silver jewellery after sulphiding?
Firstly, squeeze a small amount of toothpaste into your hand, add a little water to create a rich foam, rub the silver jewellery lightly and wipe it with a soft cloth until it shines, it is best to wipe the toothpaste and water in the palm of your hand before wiping or brushing, do not use too much force, then rinse with clean water and dry with a cloth. When cleaning silver chains, you can find a small plastic bag, put the silver jewellery in it and then squeeze a small amount of toothpaste into your hand, add a little water and rub out a rich foam, pour the foamy toothpaste water into the bag and rub repeatedly, then rinse with water.
3.How do I care for my silver jewellery?
It is advisable to wear silver jewellery every day, as the body’s oils give it a warm, natural lustre (with the exception, of course, of people whose sweat itself contains ingredients that darken silver). Avoid swimming, and do not wear it near hot springs or seawater. When not in use, wipe the surface lightly with a cotton cloth or tissue to remove water and dirt, and place in a sealed bag or box to prevent the silver from oxidising and darkening in contact with the air.
