Mercury when exposed to gold makes a amalgam of mercury which is a silver in color. The mercury may have accidentally fallen on to the ornaments from a thermometer,BP apparatus etc. DO NOT PANIC,
It is actually easy to remove the mercury, beware that mercury is harmful and can also be absorbed from unbroken skin.
First take a container and pour pure coconut oil and heat the container along with the ornament in the oil. when the oil gets hot enough to boil take out the ornament cautiously without making any burn injury. The discoloration might have diminished. repeat the same again and again until the original color is gained. the shine can be gained back by rubbing the ornament with fine cloth.
This process can lead to harmful mercury vapors so please do it outdoors and avoid children.
