Copper-base and brass alloys, by contrast, often tarnish to a \n  dull green or black, especially around the clasp or in contact with skin. If a \n  \"silver\" chain shows green discolouration rather than a soft grey patina, it's \n  likely a base-metal piece rather than solid 925.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1. Is a curb chain a good choice for everyday wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Curb chains are made from flattened, twisted links that lock together \nsmoothly, creating a sturdy structure that resists tangling and lies flat against \nthe skin. This makes them one of the most durable everyday chain styles, suitable \nfor both solo wear and layering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. How can I tell if a chain is genuine 925 sterling silver?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nGenuine 925 sterling silver is composed of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other \nmetals (typically copper), giving it a density of around 10.4 g\/cm³ — noticeably \nheavier than zinc alloy (6.6–7.2 g\/cm³) or stainless steel (around 8 g\/cm³). \nLook for a \"925\" hallmark stamp near the clasp, and check the listed weight \nagainst the chain's size as a quick sanity check.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. Why does my silver chain sometimes look dull after a few weeks?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is normal tarnishing caused by the copper content in sterling silver \nreacting with air, sweat and skincare products. A quick polish with a soft \nsilver cloth restores the shine.
