Gold purchased from Sky Jewellery turns black

I had bought a ring a couple of years back from Sky Jewelery, the band was suppose to be 18kt gold, but now I am noticing the gold is turning black! I have never seen this happen to gold jewelery before.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks,

HP

Gold is a metal that reacts to perfume, cosmetic products and other acids. Gold jewellery consists of alloys including gold, silver, copper etc. The other metals can be corrosive in nature as well. If you have any problems of tarnishing of your jewellery you can either come and get it repaired or replaced. All our jewellery has been approved by the muncipality and later sold at the outlets. Please feel free to mail me at [email protected] for any inquiries or complaints. HAPPY SHOPPING !!!

If you happen to or accidentally splashed your gold jewelry with vinegar, that means........the vinegar is genuine....:)

If it's plated that's upsetting, considering I paid 2800Qr for a gold and gem ring that was suppose to be solid 18 kt gold. I will go to another jeweler first and see what they say. Thanks for the advice.

Take it to another jewellers to find out for sure, then go back to Sky with your findings. Gold doesn't go black, only gold plated does.
