Tarnish Resistant Coating: This chain has been treated with a hypoallergenic molecular bonding process that will help your pieces resist tarnishing. It protects against in stock oxidation – UV rays while on display, while in storage and from customers trying on the pieces. This treatment will keep your pieces bright longer but still allow you to solder or chemically oxidize the chain. April 10 2023
