It's tarnished. The silver used to make that bracelet was probably alloyed with copper and that will give that copper color when the silver tarnishes. I would dip it into silver cleaner.

Other than Jai, I will not purchase any QVC jewlwery  because everything I did has tarnished and won't come back from that.

This includes Jennifer Miller, Diamonique, Ripka, Graver, and Joan Rivers. The plating wears away.

I didn't expect much from the Graver and Rivers lines because I knew it was fashion jewlery, it never lasts.

I won't spend my money on these lines anymore.

I was tempted to buy a cute Patricia Nash on Friday and then walked it back.

I can't tell you how many pieces I have from my MIL's Avon collection, from the 70's. It has zero tarnish on it!

If I decide on junk jewlery, I now purchase in a discount store, knowing it won't last, and  I don't feel bad when it gets chucked.

I'm sorry that happened to you. Send it back and get a refund before the 31st.

Q will definitely refund you AFTER 30 days if the item is defective, which it clearly

is if silver polish will not clean it. I ordered a battery operated hand held vacuum 

that stopped charging 2 months later. I was completely refunded.

Thank you everyone for your replies. I appreciate it. I will try cleaning it one more time per your suggestions and see if 3x the charm lol. If not I'll contact customer service and see what ( if any ) my options are. Thanks again !!! ( fingers crossed lol )

@KBEANS.  I have big jewelry boxes filled with QVC jewelry accumulated over the years.  My boxes are anti-tarnish and kept tightly closed.  The jewelry is from all lines plus generic.  I never polish anything unless I forget and leave it out for several weeks.  It stays untarnished and shiny.

@Ilene123   are you sure it was solid silver?  Was it a rose silver. If it was solid sterling silver it shouldn't do that no matter how much it wears.  So weird

[Ilene123]

Yes, I even looked up my order to make sure it was the sterling silver bracelet i ordered not the sterling over bronze bracelet that came out after. And yes it is the all sterling silver one. I have sooo much sterling and I have never seen this which is why I asked lol. My bracelet is slowly turning into copper. I guess I have a magic bracelet lol.

QVC does not have sterling over bronze jewelry. This is a fallacy. The white bronze jewelry they sell is rhodium over bronze (copper + tin). Silver of any fineness is not involved whatsoever.

Did you try dipping it in silver cleaner? 

I would return it if that doesn't work.
