Abstract

There are provided a silver-plated product having a more excellent wear resistance than that of conventional silver-plated products, and a method for producing the same. The method comprises the steps of: preparing a silver-plating solution which is an aqueous solution containing silver potassium cyanide or silver cyanide, potassium cyanide or sodium cyanide, and a benzothiazole or a derivative thereof; and forming a surface layer of silver on a base material by electroplating at a liquid temperature and at a current density in the silver-plating solution so as to satisfy (BC/A)/D≥10 (° C.·dm/A) assuming that a concentration of free cyanide in the silver-plating solution is A (g/L), that a concentration of a benzothiazole content of the benzothiazole or derivative thereof in the silver-plating solution is B (g/L), that the liquid temperature of the silver-plating solution is C (° C.) and that the current density during the electroplating is D (A/dm).
