Warning!

A brief warning: Although silver has many proven (and unproven) health benefits, some people appeared to be allergic to silver jewelry. In reality, the allergy occurs when silver jewelry contains nickel (cobalt, chromium, or zinc). Many jewelry brands are using these alloys for their anti-tarnishing properties. But wearing such silver accessories to many people can cause irritation and discoloration of the skin. You may notice that the contact area with the accessories has scaly or red skin. Some people will even observe that their skin is slightly discolored from contact.

Since rhodium does not cause any allergies and has anti-tarnish and anti-scratching properties, it is a great solution for jewelry makers, expansive though. But if another metal covers silver, you don't get the health benefits of this incredible metal.
