easily can be oxidized by putting in a mashed boiled eggs. It blackens completely. Then rub thoroughly with dry soft cloth. Then place it in salt water for some time. Then clean it with toothpaste without using brushes. Just gently with fingers.
Does this work with silver coins too? I have some coins I want to make them lol older and forth. Will your way or her way be able to wash off or clean off?
I need you in my life to bro do that to my collectable coins before I send them to get graded haha.. would this be noticeable as I did it on my own? Or would it look more like natural toning? If not then I guess I’ll have to put it in the sun and ground for a few months haha.
Hi there, I'm not entirely sure as we only use solid sterling silver. My guess is not since it might have other alloys in it . Might be worth trying (?). I wish I had more info for you.
What do i if i only want to oxidse part of it? Or oxidise some parts more than others?. I have a ring with indented etched letters and i want those indents oxidised more than the rest of the ring so they stand out
Try "painting" on the oxidation and then use a fine grit sand paper to remove the oxidation from the parts that you would like to keep silver. I hope this helps!
We suggest using a liquid dip or paste polish then cleaning it up with a polishing cloth. Or, try a very fine (finer than 800 grit) sanding sponge. Let us know how that works for you!

Hi there. I'm wanting to oxidize my sterling silver, but was wondering if it will still be shiny - even if the color has changed? Thanks so much!
Yes, if your silver is shiny, the oxidation will also have a nice sheen to it. Does that help? :)
@@colleenmauer Yep! Thanks so much Colleen :).
Have you tried the boiling water, aluminum foil and backing soda trick to reverse it? Is it effective?
I've tried it, and yes!

How long does the finish last? Does ot have to be sealed? If i wear my patina silver daily it changes color
it really depends on the person... www.colleenmauerdesigns.com/blogs/blog/will-my-oxidized-jewelry-stay-black-forever
I’ve never heard of liver of sulphur. But I have seen videos oxidizing silver with eggs.
Boiling eggs are going to do the same "trick" simply because are rich in sulfur ! ! ! so, why using toxic, smelly chemicals I do not have any idea 🤔🤔🤔

How to reverse it.????
You can attempt to "reverse" by taking a polishing cloth to it. It would not come off easily, though. Does this help?
How do you reverse the process?
