CAN I WEAR MY STERLING SILVER RING EVERY DAY?

THE ANSWER

You can. But expect it to tarnish. Sterling silver reacts with air and moisture. It develops a dark layer over time. This is normal. It is not damage. A quick polish brings it right back. Daily wear actually slows tarnishing because the friction from your skin keeps the surface clean. The bigger concern is softness. Silver is softer than gold or platinum. It scratches more easily. Prongs on silver rings wear down faster. For a fashion ring, daily wear is fine. For an engagement ring holding an expensive stone, silver is not the best long-term choice. Gold or platinum will protect your stone better over decades.
