Silver Jewellery

Sterling silver jewellery explained

The silver we use

All pieces are made from sterling silver, also referred to as 925, which is the standard used across all silver jewellery in the UK. Where a single item exceeds 7.78 grams, it must by law be hallmarked by a UK assay office, which confirms the metal content and origin.

Lighter items fall below that threshold and are usually stamped 925 where space allows. For a more detailed explanation of how this applies across different types of pieces, see our silver jewellery buyers guide.

What we carry

Necklaces vary from simple curb chains with integrated tags through to shaped designs such as hearts and double hearts, which sit flat against the chest rather than hanging as a loose pendant. Some of the heavier chains carry a noticeable weight, particularly in pieces like the larger heart tag designs, which feel more substantial when worn. To see our designs, view our Silver Necklaces.

Bangles include open torq bangles and snugger fitting cuff bangles, where the fit depends on how closely the cuff follows the wrist. Designs such as the Russian wedding bangle use multiple bands worn together as one piece, giving a wider look on the wrist. More detail is available to view in our Silver Bangles.

Bracelets tend to follow the wrist more closely, particularly in chain-based designs, giving a lower, more flexible feel in wear. See our Silver Bracelets for the full range.

Pendants and earrings tend to be lighter and more detailed, often incorporating pearl or cubic zirconia. Some pieces are designed specifically for wedding day wear such as the “Something Blue” styles, and many pendants have matching earrings available. See Silver Pendants and Silver Earrings for more.

Several designs across the range share a heart theme, covering necklaces, earrings and a bangle. These tend to be chosen around Valentine’s Day and anniversaries, but they work just as well as everyday pieces. See our Heart Jewellery.

Cufflinks introduce more three-dimensional detail, including hammered finishes and more intricate shapes. These are available through Men’s Silver Cufflinks.

Wedding rings

Sterling silver wedding rings come in widths from 2mm to 12mm across court, flat and flat court profiles. These are machined from solid silver rather than cast and always carry a full UK hallmark. The silver itself is sourced as 100% recycled precious metal.
