Sterling Silver is very easy to test. Silver plated brass, nickel silver or low quality silver alloys will turn green when a drop of Nitric acid is applied. Sterling will turn a creamy color. Testing kits made specifically to test sterling silver are available from many jewelry supply companies.
Nickel silver, an alloy of nickel, copper, and zinc, typically does not contain any actual silver, and it can sometimes cause skin reactions in sensitive individuals. The green staining often associated with jewelry is usually due to copper oxidation or reactions with sweat and skin oils. If you have sensitive skin or are prone to reactions, it's advisable to test the material or opt for hypoallergenic alternatives.
