Allergic

***If a .925 stamped piece of jewelry has turned, you are allergic to sterling silver. ***

Being allergic to sterling silver has to do with the amount of acid in your skin. It is not our, or any jewelry store’s, responsibility to know whether or not if you are allergic. Thus no refunds are accepted. 

*suggestion; stainless steel jewelry does not react to   skin that is allergic to sterling silver. And steel never turns. So if you are not sure if you are allergic to sterling, consider looking for steel jewelry.

.925 stamped jewelry means 92% sterling and other metals. And to prevent tarnishing, many .925 sterling silver items are coated with a hard Rhodium metal coat (this is why 925 stamped jewelry can fail a sterling test. Because of this so no returns accepted) When a person is allergic to one , they are allergic to both.

  ***Here are some signs that may point to you being allergic to Sterling Silver:***

 *The piece leaves a black mark on your skin even though it is stamped.925.
*You have an urge to rub your skin in the area you’re wearing sterling / 925
*You feel mildly itchy in the area you’re wearing sterling / 925 
*You feel sweaty in the area you wearing the sterling / 925
*Even wearing regular fashion jewelry can make you itch. 
*When you wear fashion jewelry, especially rings, it will turn quickly within HOURS.  
* Even though the item is stamped .925, it still turns in a couple of weeks. 

.925 stamped jewelry is 92% sterling and other metals. And to prevent quick tarnishing, many .925 sterling silver items are coated with a hard Rhodium metal coat.

**All solid sterling silver and .925 silver will tarnish in time [TARNISH does NOT mean TURN . Tarnishing refers to the oxidation process ALL sterling goes through. It needs to be cleaned regularly with a sterling silver cloth or liquid….maybe once a month or once a year. If the piece is left to tarnish without cleaning for many years, the tarnish may not come off. SteelJewelyBox.com sells sterling cleaning clothes. Please purchase these clothes to take care of your jewelry.
