Are your silver pieces real sterling?
All of my handmade items marked as sterling are real 925 sterling silver. My rings are cast by hand, which is impossible to do with costume metals. It requires 92.5% silver content, which is what I use. My sterling pieces are both lead and nickel-free.

PLEASE NOTE: In some extremely rare cases, sterling silver can still turn skin green like costume metal. This is because of the copper alloys in the sterling, which is not something I have control over. Body chemistry reacting with the copper varies from person to person. This has nothing to do with the quality of the piece.
