Jewellery – it has been around for centuries, if not longer and the love for it exists in both women and men. while women will openly accept how much they adore jewellery and how it is a part of their daily as well as occasion wear wardrobe, men too have become vocal about their acceptance of accessories.
When you come to shop at Unniyarcha, you will see that we have an amazing collection of jewellery for women and men – while the delicate and ethereal-looking pieces are what entice our women shoppers, we have more rugged-looking options for men. And while the designs and patterns will vary for each collection, the one aspect that remains constant is the silver we use.
At Unniyarcha, we use premium 92.5 sterling silver to craft each and every piece that we sell – not only do these pieces pass the test of fashion and style, but also that of time. While pure silver might be more precious, it is 92.5 silver that lasts longer and is more suited to jewellery and other article making.
So, when you are looking for beautiful silver jewellery that will last you and give you true value for the money you spend, you know that Unniyarcha is where you want to come to!
Silver And Sterling Silver – Understanding The Difference
Before you rush into buying silver jewellery, it helps to know one small but important detail—the difference between pure silver and sterling silver.
-
Let’s start with pure silver. This is as close as it gets to the real thing - 99.9% silver. But as fancy as it might sound, the problem is that this silver is super soft. There is an unmistakable shine, but it will bend, scratch, and lose shape very easily. That’s why you’ll usually see pure silver in coins, collectables, or maybe a decorative showpiece, but not in jewellery you’d wear every day.
-
Sterling silver, on the other hand, is what jewellers love. It’s 92.5% silver mixed with 7.5% other metals, most often copper. That tiny mix makes a huge difference, because this blend makes this type of silver tougher. Sterling silver lasts longer and holds its shape better. 925 has actually become the industry standard for silver, and you will see the same stamped on authentic pieces.
So yes, silver and sterling silver come from the same family, but only one really works for jewellery you’ll wear and treasure. That’s why at Unniyarcha, we love designing in sterling silver; it lets us create pieces that aren’t just pretty today but can also be passed down as heirlooms tomorrow.
Here Is Why You Should Choose 925 Sterling Silver
When you are shopping at Unniyarcha, you can be confident about the silver you are buying, because we use 92.5 sterling silver for everything we have on offer. This means that you are getting quality for the money you spend, in addition to our stunning designs and patterns.
Here’s why 92.5 silver jewellery is worth considering:
-
In India, silver isn’t just a metal, it is also cultural. It’s gifted at weddings, during festivals, and even in small daily rituals. Think of brides getting anklets and toe rings, or babies being given tiny silver chains and evil eye bracelets.
-
Pure silver, though beautiful, is simply too soft. Jewellery made from it won’t last long because it bends and scratches in no time. That’s why sterling silver, with a little mix of other metal, works so much better. This jewellery is stronger and far more wearable.
-
Another big plus is that sterling silver is hypoallergenic. If your skin tends to react to other metals, 925 sterling silver is usually safe, which makes it a solid choice for people with sensitive skin types.
-
And then there’s style, because silver goes with almost anything. You could be in jeans and a kurta or dressed head-to-toe in something traditional, it’ll still match. At Unniyarcha, we love that flexibility because it means we can create pieces that fit every mood and occasion.
-
Of course, we can’t argue with the cost factor because sterling silver offers you elegance at a fraction of the cost – unlike gold or platinum, silver is easier on the pocket, allowing you to build a larger collection, without burning a hole in your pocket.
Not only is our 92.5 pure silver Indian jewellery stylish and trending, it is also really easy to maintain – and in case you notice any damage or reduction in shine, send it back to us and we will make it as good as new.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are pure silver and sterling silver the same?
No, although both are silver, pure silver is 99.9% silver, but sterling silver is 92.5% and 7.5% of another metal like copper.
-
Why do you sell jewellery made only with sterling silver?
Pure silver is too soft and malleable, which means that jewellery made using it can break or bend easily. This is why we choose sterling silver, which is a lot stronger, allowing us to make durable jewellery.
-
Will sterling silver jewellery lose its shine over time?
Although sterling silver is known to retain its shine a lot longer, it can become dull post regular usage. But if that happens, you can always send it back to us and we will make it as good as new.
-
Can sterling silver be used to make dainty pieces?
Of course – you will be able to find a variety of delicate pieces made using sterling silver at Unniyarcha. We do suggest that you consider picking these pieces for special occasions, though.
