I just had a customer contact me that sterling silver item they ordered is chipping from edges and little black showing up.
I never had this happen before and not sure if there is the metal silver mixed with. I generally buy empty blank bracelet, engrave on them, fill color and polish them. My customer is little freaked out telling me item is not sterling silver. I also had in past tested these item for the purity but never had issues and always buying from the same place.
Everything I've read online says only plated stuff will do this. I only use .925, so I'm little confused. Please advise!
