When I started wearing silver chains as a kid, at first I was one who would clean em everyday, and try the most to keep from tarnishing. Eventually a jeweler told me to not be so uptight with the maintenance of the chain. He recommended quite the opposite, he recommended I sweat in it, wear it, and not even focus on keeping it clean. In other words this has been the secret for me to keeping my chains clean over the years. I cycle chains every couple years, and wear them 24/7/365, I work out, sweat, swim, sleep, shower in them and never had tarnishing issues.

the reason why some .925 silver pieces tarnish more rapidly than others is based on whether the piece of jewelry has a rhodium coating or not. Rhodium is highly tarnish-resistant and will help silver jewelry keep its color longer.

Something people forget about is that everybody's body is different the silver up against your skin will react depending on what your body secretes.... I have seen people wear chains and it tarnishes in 2 days and I have seen others wear them for a month and nothing happened. The cleaner your diet the less crap your body will release. Even if the silver tarnishes you can clean it in less than 2 minutes and make it look new again.

The only downside to silver is that it tarnishes, but it’s an easy fix, especially if you know the baking soda and aluminum foil method, which, in fact, takes only the tarnish and plates it onto the aluminum, whereas jewelry cleaner solutions, and other methods takes silver off, as well as the tarnish. So with that the pro side of having silver jewelry is that it’s 92.5%, pure silver, whereas most gold chains are only 48%to 75% pure. So unless you’re buying 22 karat or pure gold jewelry, which is really not economically liable is that with a silver chain can say it’s “a silver chain” a chain made out of silver, whereas a 14 karat gold chain is only a little bit over half actual gold. Oh, and I forgot to mention that gold also does tarnish just not usually as fast as silver. One more note is that some people prefer the look of tarnished or “patina” on their silver jewelry and gold jewelry. I have it a gold mariner link bracelet from my grandfather that has a little bit of a tarnish what I like to call a patina and I think it looks cool, so it really depends on what kind of person you are whether you mind or not and that it’s an easy fix if you know what to do. Just google using baking soda and aluminum foil for silver. And aside that which also works for gold, the only other thing you need to use cleaning your jewelry is Dawn dish soap. So for tarnish boil some water line a tray with aluminum foil lay your jewelry on top of the foil sprinkle some baking soda over it, and then pour boiling water into the tray. Maybe add some more baking soda it will foam up a bit mix it up a little and let it sit until cold, then rinse off and/or use Dawn dish soap and hot water. Gold or silver.

If you're not a sweaty person, dont do dirty work and are not doing dirty activities and stuff that can get your necklace dirty and grimy than it's not going to tarnish as quickly. If you're the latter than it can tarnish faster and you'll have to clean it more often. Really just depends on the person

@Zombie Eric Harris when buying a chain or bracelet from a reputable dealer they usually go by length in inches and width in millimeters. It’s always good to know the weight to know if it’s hollow or not. Depends on dive but hollow chains could be heavy too just not close to a solid of the same size. For a first piece or a vein in general I would buy in person. Many jewelry stores have catalogs for stuff they don’t usually carry such as hefty chains and bracelets from everything between gold and tungsten. I would do some local window shopping and just ask questions ask if they can order something if they don’t have what you want.

After all, 99 % ( 100 %) silver coming out of the mines is never tarnished. ( Even the alloys in anything other than 24k gold tarnish.) I have 22k gold rings that never tarnish. I have had 14k gold jewelry that has "tarnished" due to the alloys. The higher silver % 's can be searched for availability.

Wont really tarnish but the plating will eventually wear off. How long it lasts depends on how thick the plating is and what you do when having the bracelet on. Some people really like gold plated pieces..I personally dont care for them because of the wearing down factor. No matter the quality or how thick the plating is all plated jewelry eventually wears down. I'd rather solid gold, sterling silver or stainless steel. Stainless for hassle free and still looks good. Sterling for the look and because it's a precious metal. Looks for me I could care less about precious metal. It's not worth nearly what you paid for it anyway!

That doesn't make sense brother. The reason for the existence of sterling silver is that it's a non corrosive alloy composition.

Silver oxidizes when exposed to air. Obviously manufacturers store their silver in conditions where it limits how exposed it is to the elements. The moment you wear the chain and it interacts with your body's oils, or minerals in water (from swimming or taking a shower) etc, it starts to tarnish.
@ksajak2 жыл бұрын
The 925 in sterling silver stands for the percentage of silver it is. It is 92.5% silver the rest is usually copper. This is because silver is very soft which is why jewelry isn't normally made with 99.9% silver. It's just too soft, malleable and brittle. Sterling silver tarnishes quicker than 99.9% silver because of the copper that is in it. 99.9% pure silver will eventually tarnish as well but takes longer

Or if you find it getting quite dirty or dull every month wouldn't hurt. If you don't sweat a bunch and are not doing anything crazy to get it dirty you'll probably be good for a while.

Stainless steel will never tarnish is is extremely durable. Just lacks the shine that precious metals give you
@ksajak2 жыл бұрын
@@unknown-nq2fj stainless lacks the shine of silver because of how white silver is but stainless takes on a mirror like shine when polished the right way. Looks like white gold. Which is why some people prefer it over other metals or when they can't afford the more sought after metals. I just recieved my Miami cuban necklaces I got for my son and I in 925 and instantly ordered the same ones but in stainless that way we can wear then when we shouldn't wear our 925 like in pools or ocean. Seen too many things that said not to wear them in those situations. I just want to keep my silver nice! I worry too much lol. I'm sure they'll be find but I spent over like 275 on them. I want them to stay nice!

I have a 925 Sterling silver rope chain and in the grooves it’s turned yellow. I’ve tried the baking soda and hot water thing but it never really worked to remove the yellow. Anything I can do to get it cleaned ?

It might not be real sterling silver.take it to a jeweler to have it cleaned if it's real silver if it's not it will tarnish and won't clean the way it should. I like both gold and silver.

I prefer the darker silver. I even bleach it, to take the shine off it.
@ksajak2 жыл бұрын
Just go with stainless steel. Won't have to do worry about bleaching it plus it's tough and long lasting! Won't have to worry about tarnishing either which is a definite plus!

Because he said you have to watch his other video that explains that..yea I know..I hate that too but without even seeing the video I can tell you that it depends on the person and what they do. I'd you're a sweaty person that works in a dirty environment than your silver is going to get dirty faster and require more cleaning and if you live near the ocean the salt water and salt in the environment can cause the silver to tarnish more quickly. Or if you're a swimmer the chlorine in the water causes silver to tarnish faster. If you're not a big sweater, not a dirty person and dont live at or near the ocean your silver wont tarnish as much or as often. If your silver is good quality. All silver will eventually tarnish it just depends on the person and how well you take care of it

I don't understand people buying Tiffany.. I get that you want quality, that's one thing but to an extent. Also to overpay for a gold chain is one thing, but to overpay on a silver chain!? Even most places like in the mall, Sears, and most big name jewelry stores will try and sell you silver jewelry at some INSANE high premium! That or 10kt hollow gold. I took my nephew to Jarred just to try on some chains to see what he liked. He was looking at this 8mm flat curb silver bracelet they were selling for $170!!! Came home and ordered him a 8mm flat curb silver chain from Luke Zion less than the price they were charging for a single bracelet! I think it's because these people selling over priced, low quality jewelry either at mall stores or jewelry shops either do it because they know they are taking advantage and don't care, or don't know and are told much because they personally don't know crap about jewelry. I don't remember the last time I went to a jewelry store and saw an actual scale! They just care about getting low quality product out the door ASAP with an insane premium. MAJOR props to guys like Dennis at Luke Zion for not only selling quality products but at a fair price!

Silver will tarnish if you don't clean it if you make a paste out of water and baking soda if you wear the piece of silver everyday clean it once a week with this paste if you wear the silver every now and then clean it once every two weeks to a month and it will never tarnish with this paste cleaning routine if you are really truly wanting to get the best shine out of the Piece for a special occasion silver or gold get a liquid jewelry cleaner for either silver or gold and let the piece soak in the liquid cleaner for the piece silver or gold for a few minutes then air dry mix the water and baking soda paste together brush if you have an old toothbrush or use a paper towel with the paste on it and rub it into the piece of jewelry then let the piece of jewelry air dry and develop a crust from the baking soda and water paste then rinse off with water and wipe dry with a paper towel or lint-free Fiber or cloth towel you can also clean the piece with a regular towel you'll just have to deal with the lint from a regular towel which is no big deal

I wouldn’t recommend showering with sterling silver. The water itself won’t hurt the metal but the moisture trapped in the chain over time with induce tarnishing. If u accidentally wear it in the shower once and a while it’s okay just make sure to dry it.

@@unknown-nq2fj I think you should shower with sterling silver but only 2 times a week tops as skin oil naturally cleans silver but showering with it will wash off the old dry skin oils just as long as you don’t consistently wear it into the shower every single day

Think about it why are you in the shower to clean the sweaty fats of your body besides dirt it also takes a layer of protective tarnish and tarnishes further and the soap wont help a simple polish with a rag left in the bathroom with polish, look at it as the towel for your jewelry OMG Clean your jewelry and then polish it it will stop tarnish and that is oxidization of silver or the bs metal it is. Stopping air,oxygen, water, salt,or any chemical sweat etc will reduce tarnish, Polish puts a barrier up but you still need to replenish. If your to bloody lazy. Buy new jewelry every year and give away your old jewelry to some one who will care for it. Stop whining Karen's. :) Enjoy your jewelry.
