Does silver plated jewelry chip or change color?

This lady claims that her silver plated jewelry does not chip or change color, even though Sterling Silver does. I’ve had sterling silver jewelry for a while and they have not tarnished…

Hi A Girl,
Any plated jewelry will have the plating wear off sooner or later. Both plated silver and sterling silver will tarnish but that can be easily cleaned off. If you wear your sterling silver regularly, tarnish will take longer to develop.
