Of course, when ancient gold and silver artifacts were unearthed, some of the surface layers had patina, especially silver products. This is due to the fact that the gold and silver artifacts were exposed to other corroded copper before they were excavated, such as burial with the bronze artifacts, and were contaminated with patina. Another reason is that the texture of most ancient silverware was a copper alloy containing a certain component, and when the copper was oxidized and corroded, a patina covering layer was formed on the silverware. However, in most cases, rust and scale removal can be done to restore the original appearance of the utensils.
