? about silvered beads

Oct 20, 2006 3 Replies

I'm seeing a lot of awesome lampwork beads lately with silvered dots on the outside as accents, apparently REAL silver. Won't these tarnish though? That would be a bummer.


They can tarnish, but it happens a lot more slowly because the dots are made with fine silver, not sterling, which oxidizes slower.

that liquid stuff is pretty harsh, better to use a polishing cloth like a Sunshine Cloth from Rio.
