 ***If your sterling silver is gold plated, overtime, you may notice (black/brown) spots of rust, even if its stored away. If this happens, a polishing wipe can be used to remove this rust/tarnish. It is not recommended to shower with gold plated sterling silver, as the layer of gold will eventually wear off or rub off.  If the gold tone rubs off, your jewelry will turn back to its original silver color as silver is the base metal. If this happens your jewelry can be re-dipped or re-plated by a jeweler. Sterling silver does not and will not turn your skin green, however, the jewelry itself may turn a darkish color due to rust/tarnishing, but this can be easily removed and polished by following the simple steps below.
