    Real nice bracelet. Love the design of it. I'd be surprised if it wasn't silver. Somewhere there may be a faint mark on it. HUGE ring. Is it white and yellow gold maybe?

    I think any water (fresh or salt) will turn silver black, as well as places that do not drain well in parks, fields, etc...

    The ring is marked 18K and 950. I wondered the same thing. I just assumed 950 was probably silver. Maybe I'll dig my metal test kit out and do a scratch test.
    I think your right about the whole water thing. I've dug a few silver coins from swampy conditions that were coroded.
