Does sterling silver and 18kt gold plated necklace turn your neck a different color?


Rate This Answer

Sterling Silver Yes, sterling silver and 18kt gold plated necklaces can turn your neck a different color. Sterling silver is 7.5 percent copper, but the most common stains from sterling silver jewelry are black, and occur when the metal tarnishes (darkens due to a reaction with gases in the air). Gold itself hardly ever stains your skin, it's other metals that gold is mixed with that do. ChaCha!
