Does sterling Silver change color?
Silver will tarnish over time and turn black. If you don’t have any silver polish and you need to clean and shine silver jewelry right away, you can clean the ‘black’ off by rubbing the ring with paste toothpaste (not gel) on a soft toothbrush or rag. This isn’t the best way to clean jewelry obviously, but when you are in a pinch it will make it shiny like new again. 🙂 Hope this helps should you decide to buy the ring. Ooops. Scratch that. The above applies to straight silver. The ring you are looking at is rhodium plated which keeps the silver from tarnishing as it ages. *Smacks forehead* I should have looked at the URL before I typed that I guess, but I’m leaving it for those who have plain silver jewelry. Some people have a reaction to silver and it turns them green where the ring is worn. If that is the problem the lady was posting about, a coat of clear nail polish on the inside of the ring will usually keep it from happening. If the ring turned black, then it wasn’t plated or ha
