Frequently Asked Questions About Oxidised Jewellery

What is oxidised jewellery?

Oxidised jewellery (also spelled oxidized) is silver or silver-alloy jewellery that has been chemically treated to create a darkened, antique appearance. The oxidation process adds black or grey tones to recessed areas, highlighting intricate designs and giving the piece a vintage, rustic look. This style has roots in tribal and Rajasthani jewellery traditions and has become hugely popular for its bohemian aesthetic.

What types of oxidised jewellery do you offer?

Our oxidised collection includes statement necklaces, chokers, jhumka earrings, studs, nose rings, bangles, kadas, anklets, and complete jewellery sets. Designs range from tribal and Rajasthani motifs to contemporary geometric patterns and nature-inspired pieces. We stock both everyday lightweight pieces and elaborate statement jewellery for festivals and events.

Is oxidised jewellery real silver?

Our oxidised jewellery is made from German silver (an alloy of copper, nickel, and zinc) or brass with an oxidised silver finish. It is not sterling silver. This makes it affordable while still achieving the beautiful antique silver appearance. The metal is nickel-safe for most wearers, though those with severe metal sensitivities should test on a small area first.

What outfits pair well with oxidised jewellery?

Oxidised jewellery complements cotton sarees, handloom fabrics, linen outfits, and Indo-Western wear beautifully. It pairs especially well with earthy tones, block prints, ikat, and kalamkari patterns. For a bohemian fusion look, wear oxidised pieces with jeans and kurtas. They're perfect for college, casual outings, and festivals like Navratri where the rustic aesthetic shines.

Will the oxidised finish wear off?

With regular wear and proper care, the oxidised finish can last for years. However, the finish may lighten over time, especially on high-touch areas, revealing more of the silver base underneath - some people prefer this naturally aged look. Exposure to water, sweat, and chemicals accelerates fading. The piece won't become completely silver; it develops character over time.

How do I care for oxidised jewellery?

Store in an airtight container or zip-lock bag to slow oxidation changes. Keep away from moisture - remove before washing hands, bathing, or swimming. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. Never use silver polish or chemical cleaners, as these will remove the oxidised finish. If the piece gets too shiny, you can re-oxidise it at home using boiled egg yolk fumes (the sulphur darkens silver).

Is oxidised jewellery suitable for sensitive skin?

Most people can wear oxidised jewellery without issues. However, since it contains base metals like nickel, those with severe nickel allergies may experience reactions. If you're unsure, test by wearing for a short period first. For earrings, you can apply a thin coat of clear nail polish to posts as a barrier. Our collection tends to be better tolerated than heavily gold-plated brass pieces.
