Real silver can turn black — and that doesn’t mean it’s fake. ✨
Silver naturally reacts with sulphur compounds in the environment, forming a dark surface layer called tarnish. Humidity, pollution, perspiration, chemicals, and certain materials can make the process happen faster.
But remember: colour alone doesn’t determine the value of silver. Purity, weight, and actual silver content matter far more.
