Sterling silver turns dark or stains because of a chemical response caused by contact with sulphur or hydrogen. A food or ordinary things containing sulphur can cause discolouring, but even dirtied air can turn sterling silver dark.

Moisture in the air or on the skin canreact with the copper present in all Sterling Silver jewelry, causing a green discoloration and tarnish to develop. This is a fairly common complaint in hot, humid climates andcan also affect individuals with particularly moist skin.
