Silver is the metal most Indian families buy jewellery in first. A baby's first kada, a toe ring at a wedding, a chain a son wears every day, a pair of studs bought with a first salary: all of these are usually silver. It costs far less than gold, it suits both traditional and modern outfits, and a well-made piece lasts for years. This collection brings all of AJB Silver Arte's silver jewellery together in one place, so you can shop for yourself and your family without switching between pages.
Every piece here is BIS hallmarked 925 sterling silver and ships with a certificate of authenticity, so you know exactly what you are paying for. If you want to buy silver jewellery online but have only ever bought it from a local jeweller, the sections below explain what to check, how silver is priced and how to keep it looking new.
Pure Silver vs 925 Sterling Silver: What You Are Buying
Many people search for pure silver jewellery online, so it helps to know what "pure" means in jewellery.
- Fine silver (999): 99.9% silver. It is very soft, which is why it is used mainly for coins, bars and some puja articles. A ring or chain made from it would bend and scratch quickly.
- Sterling silver (925 or 92.5): 92.5% silver mixed with 7.5% other metal, usually copper. The copper makes the metal hard enough for clasps, prongs and fine detail that last through daily wear, while the piece is still real silver by weight.
When a jeweller says "pure silver jewellery", 925 sterling silver is the standard they mean, and it is the grade used across this collection. Anything sold as "silver-plated" or "German silver" is a different product: a base metal with a thin silver coating, or an alloy with no silver in it at all.
How to Check Real Silver When You Shop Online
Buying sterling silver jewellery online is safe when the seller gives you the same proof a good jeweller would in the shop. Look for these four things on any piece you buy:
- A BIS hallmark from the Bureau of Indian Standards showing the purity grade (925 for sterling silver). It is the most reliable sign that the silver content has been tested.
- The gram weight of the piece, listed on the product page or shared on request. Silver is valued by weight, so it helps you judge the price.
- Clear photos from several angles, including close-ups of the clasp, stones and finish.
- A written return and exchange policy, so you are covered if the size or fit is wrong.
At AJB Silver Arte, every piece is BIS hallmarked 925 sterling silver and ships with a certificate of authenticity, and unused items can be returned or exchanged within 48 hours of delivery. To know the weight of any piece, ask our team on WhatsApp before you order.
Shop Silver Jewellery by Who It Is For
Shop silver jewellery for women, silver jewellery for men, silver jewellery for kids and silver jewellery for babies, or browse every piece together in this collection.
Silver Jewellery for Women
The largest part of the collection, with designs for office, college, parties and festivals. Choose from daily-wear studs and hoops, statement jhumkas, dainty bracelets, statement rings and pendant necklaces. For traditional wear there are oxidised earrings, toe rings (bichiya and metti) and anklets (payal), and the waist chains suit weddings and pujas.
Silver Jewellery for Men
Heavier and more solid designs, built to be worn every day. Shop silver chains in snake, Cuban link, foxtail and classic styles, bracelets, geometric and religious kadas, bold rings and cufflinks. Men's silver is often chosen by weight, so ask our team for the weight of a piece if you want something with real heft.
Silver Jewellery for Kids
Lightweight bracelets, small studs and rings with smooth edges and secure fastenings. Silver is a popular choice for children because sterling silver is generally gentle on skin and the pieces are easy to clean.
Silver Jewellery for Baby
Baby kadas, nazariya bracelets and anklets for naming ceremonies, first birthdays and annaprashan. They are some of the most common silver gifts in India, and many families keep them for years.
Popular Types of Silver Jewellery
- Silver rings: bands, stone rings, cocktail and statement rings, and couple rings.
- Silver earrings: studs for daily wear, hoops, drops, danglers and jhumkas for festive looks.
- Silver chains and necklaces: thin chains for pendants, heavier chains for men, and necklaces and pendant sets for women.
- Silver bracelets and kadas: chain bracelets, cuffs, evil eye bracelets, and kadas for men, women and babies.
- Anklets and toe rings: payal and bichiya are traditionally worn in silver, not gold, which makes them some of the most-bought silver pieces in India.
- Oxidised silver jewellery: sterling silver with a darkened, antique finish that suits ethnic and indo-western outfits.
Silver for Daily Wear, Festivals and Gifting
Sterling silver is strong enough to wear every day, which is why minimal studs, thin chains and simple rings are the pieces people rarely take off. For festivals and weddings, oxidised jhumkas, statement necklaces and traditional anklets add detail without the cost of gold. Silver also works well as a gift. It is affordable, feels personal, and a BIS hallmarked piece shows the recipient it is the real thing. Popular choices include couple rings for anniversaries, bracelets for Raksha Bandhan, kadas for newborns and chains for fathers and brothers.
How Silver Jewellery Is Priced
The price of a silver piece depends on three things:
- Weight: more grams of 925 silver means a higher base value.
- The silver rate on the day: silver prices change with the market, like gold.
- Making and design: fine detailing, stone setting, plating (rose gold or gold polish) and handwork add to the cost.
Knowing the weight helps you compare designs fairly. A heavier plain kada and a lighter, detailed earring can cost the same for different reasons, and the weight tells you which reason applies.
How to Care for Silver Jewellery
All real silver tarnishes over time. Sulphur in the air reacts with the metal and forms a dark layer. This is a sign that the piece is genuine, and it is easy to manage:
- Store each piece in an airtight pouch or zip bag, away from moisture and sunlight.
- Put jewellery on after perfume, lotion and hairspray, and take it off before swimming, bathing or cleaning with chemicals.
- Wipe it with a soft cloth after wearing to remove sweat and oils.
- To clean tarnish, wash in lukewarm water with a little mild soap, rinse and dry fully, or use a silver polishing cloth.
- Do not polish oxidised pieces hard, because that removes the dark finish that gives them their look.
Pieces you wear often tarnish more slowly, because daily contact with skin and cloth keeps the surface clean. For heavily tarnished or intricate pieces, AJB Silver Arte also offers professional polishing.
