2. Silver Jewellery: Not Always Second!
Whenever we talk of jewellery metals, silver has always got the second position after gold. Even when it’s about awarding ceremonies, gold medal is given to the winner and silver to the runner-up. But does it always have to be that ways? Just because gold is rarer and thus, pricier, does it have to be the it-thing in terms of fashion and jewellery as well? I don’t think so! What constitutes style has got nothing to do with what’s expensive. It is hence that Silver Jewellery has been gaining popularity as a contemporary option. And here are some reasons for why it deserves to not always be second!

• Its lustre outshines that of gold: Sterling silver, the most popular variant used for making jewellery is known for its shine and looks almost like platinum. Lately, a lot of designers have been coming up with necklaces, rings and earrings made of this metal and the response from customers has also been encouraging.

• More adaptable to casual and formal wear: While gold jewellery looks good only with formal outfits, silver ornaments can go with both formal and casual attires. Oxidized options with no lustre go well with casual jeans and tops, while the shinier Silver Jewellery can be worn on special occasions to add a touch of bling. Silver Gemstone Jewellery in Rajasthan has become very popular as now it can be worn as a daily wear accessory.
• Suits all skin tones: When going for Silver Jewellery, you need to worry about your skin tone. Whether you are dark, whitish, fair or any other skin tone, silver is always going to suit you.

With so many factors working in the favour of Silver Jewellery and an added advantage of its reasonable price, it finds the top position in my list of stylish accessories and I am sure after reading this blog, it would be the same for you!
