Tarnishing Silver

[ekhunter]

This might sound like an odd question, but does anyone know the fastest way to tarnish silver. It's 800/1000 parts silver and I want it to look like the tarnished pieces in the set. I know I can go chemical, but it looks weird, and the natural way of over time, well that will take too long. Any help would be apreciated.

I've heard sulphur is the solution you're looking for. H2S being the preferred method.

So if you can, suspend the parts from a window overlooking a busy road.

H2S in exhaust gas is one of the joys that catalytic converters have brought to the world. A deadly poison, by the way.

Makes me laugh, watching all those joggers, "getting healthy" as they pump down the pavements, breathing in deisel micoparticles, H2S and CO. Laced with small side order of HCN.

I'll stay on the sofa, watch telly and outlive all them silly boogers.
