Synthetic Oval Pink Opal Sterling Silver Filigree Shank Women's Halo Wedding Ring SPJ;

Sterling silver jewelry is coated with rhodium or gold to get the platinum or gold look without breaking your bank. The plating also serves a protection to the jewelry from tarnishing. However the coating is sensitive to acid chemical from body secretion such as sweat and, cleaning material, lotion and cream. It does not indicate that it is not of good quality. It just need to be taken care of. Cleaning after use will give the jewelry longevity.
