The process of blackening silver first took place around 1100 AD when refining metals was carried out. This was taken up to separate it from other impurities. Then, sulphur was used on the molten silver, because of which the metal turned black.

When pure sterling silver jewellery is purposely exposed to air that contains sulphur, it turns dark. A compound, silver sulphide, is formed, which creates black patches, giving the silver a dark-black finish, which results in pieces with a stunning vintage look. This is how oxidised silver jewellery is made today.
