Selling Silver Flatware

Testing the Authenticity of the Silver Flatware

There are several ways to check the purity and authenticity of silver flatware. Some of the simple testing techniques are as follow:

Sonic Testing

If you rub your silver flatware together for a while and bring it close to your ear, you will hear a ringing voice. This simple test verifies the purity of silver flatware. If you hear a dull sound, it means the item is fake.

Acid Testing

Dip your silver flatware in a mixture of nitric acid, if the acid mixture turns into creamy white, it means the silver flatware is pure. If it turns into some other color, then the silver flatware is fake.

Bleach Testing

If you dip your silver flatware into bleach and the flatware became black in color then the silver flatware is pure. However, this testing is not recommended as it damages the color of the flatware.

Magnet Testing

Silver flatware is non-magnetic in nature. So if a piece of silver flatware sticks to a magnet, then you can be sure that it’s fake. This test can easily weed out fake ones that are instead made of steel or iron.

Ice Testing

Silver is a good thermal conductor. So if you put an ice cube on top of your silver item, then the ice cube will start to melt quickly. An ice cube placed on silver will melt quicker than on iron and a little quicker than on copper.
