Everything you need to know about women's silver earrings
A variety of earrings exist in sterling silver. Knowing more about them can help you make informed choices while making a purchase decision. Here’s a quick little guide that has answers to some of the questions people ask about silver earrings.
Are sterling silver earrings good for sensitive skin?
Pure silver is too soft and malleable to be used in jewellery. To make it sturdy, it is strengthened by adding other metals like copper, zinc and nickel to it. This creates a silver alloy known as sterling silver. Sterling Silver is usually safe for sensitive skin when alloyed with copper and zinc. However, many people experience allergic reactions to sterling silver that contains nickel in it. Make sure to check the metal information before making a purchase, especially if you're allergic to certain metals used in sterling silver.
Why do women's sterling silver earrings turn black?
Black stains on women's sterling silver earrings occur when silver reacts with the gasses in the air. This reaction makes your sterling silver earrings tarnish. Silver earrings usually turn black due to hot and humid climate conditions and the moisture on your skin. Make-up on the skin can also be one of the reasons since it contains chemical compounds that can be harder than sterling silver itself. Some sterling silver earrings are coated with rhodium to keep them from tarnishing. But this coating can also wear off with time. Therefore, it's advised to take care of your silver earrings and polish or clean them from time to time.
Can women's silver earrings be worn every day?
The simple answer is yes. You can wear your sterling silver earrings as often as you want. Sometimes silver earrings can tarnish when left alone for a long time. Hence, it's better to wear them. Avoid wearing them while doing any activity that could scratch your silver earrings, since they easily get scratched. Also, avoid wearing them during shower or swimming.
