1 thought on “Why does gold jewelry fade?”

  1. The discoloration or fading of gold jewelry is closely related to human sweat. 99%of human sweats are water, and about 1%are waste and harmful substances in the human body, such as chlorine substitutes, lactic acid, urea ammonia, etc. After contacting the silver and copper in gold jewelry, these substances will produce chemical reactions, produce silver chloride and copper sulfide, and show dark black chemical salt. This kind of chemical salt is often dropped from gold jewelry to pollute the skin of the wearer, leaving a very obvious black stain on the skin.nAt present, cosmetics have also become one of the indispensable "characters" of people's lives. If you apply it on the skin of the gold jewelry, it will undoubtedly provide opportunities for cosmetics containing chemicals and the golden jewelry that is most afraid of chemical erosion, and the results can be imagined. Some cosmetics also contain some fine hard particles, which can form another type of dirt, thereby wear gold jewelry. Regional environmental factors may also make gold jewelry lose their bright color. For example: dry areas, the air contains more fine dust. After the human body is contaminated, it will form a "human sandpaper". It can wear gold jewelry to erode extremely fine debris and local black stains. It is worth mentioning that the refreshing powder or moisturizing cream also contains similar particles, which will also make gold jewelry barely like the above.nGenerally speaking, gold jewelry should be sent back to jewelry stores after wearing it for a while, and do it for cleaning and polishing. After professional jewelry maintenance, gold jewelry will immediately show a new feeling.
