Fake. It's most likely not an allergic reaction, I am allergic to silver and it doesn't turn my finger green. I have some really cheap pieces that I know are fake and they do turn my finger green...

It's more than likely fake. Apply some clear nail polish over the jewelry and it shouldn't do that

It has a ton to do with a person's PH balance, you know, body chemistry. A certain piece real or fake can leave marks on your skin, while to another person, it might not have the same affect. Weird stuff I tell ya.

The metal is oxidizing/rusting. metals with lots of lead or nickle will do this and yes they are fake. Gold and silver tarnish (get coated with oil that whitens and makes the metal less shiny) but don't stain your finger.

the copper content in your ring turns your finger green. its a chemical reaction, nothing harmful. brass is a mixture of copper and nickle, the ELEMENT COPPER makes the reaction. and its not an allergic reaction.

Fake jewelery has substantial amounts of brass..which oxidizes on your skin

It doesn't have to be fake,it can just be a chemical reaction.

It's not made with precious metals.

allergic reaction would be the only other answer

real silver would do that too. it needs to be cleaned or polish.
