What are these black bits of paper that came with my gold rings?

Hi guys!

Wondering if you could help me solve a mystery. Years ago I bought a set of 3 18k plated stack rings. Each came in their own tiny plastic baggie and in each baggie was the ring (obviously) and a small square of thin black paper.

Does anybody know what these are called? Are they there to keep the jewelry from tarnishing? I would actually like to buy some more as it seems that those three rings are the only things in my jewel box that do not tarnish.

Thanks!
