The black detailing is achieved through a special sulphidation process. **Q: What is the common "sulphidation treatment" for Nepali jewelry?** **A:** When silver jewelry darkens, "oxidation" is a common folk term. Oxidation refers to a reaction with oxygen. However, silver (jewelry) turning black is actually a reaction with "sulfur" in the air, forming "silver sulfide." The black substance on the surface of silver (jewelry)—which can appear coffee-colored, light brown, dark brown, or reddish-brown—is silver sulfide. If not maintained properly, silver (jewelry) will darken and lose its luster. Therefore, the correct term is "sulphidation," caused by reactions with hydrogen sulfide in the air or sulfur dioxide in moisture, thus forming silver sulfide on the surface. In Nepali silver craftsmanship, a deliberate "sulphidation" treatment is applied to create a distinctive artisanal look, giving the piece a darker, aged appearance. If you prefer a brighter finish, you can gently scrub the deliberately sulphided areas with a soft brush dipped in toothpaste. **Package Includes:** Bracelet, bracelet gift box, silver polishing cloth, PVC zipper bag. ■ Nellie After-Sales Service: Enjoy a lifetime warranty and repair service for your purchase.
