When you wear jewelry every day, it needs to do more than just look pretty—it should feel comfortable, stay beautiful over time, and be crafted from materials you can trust. At LAS By Ananya, we chose 92.5% Pure Silver (Sterling Silver) with Rhodium E-Coating for a reason. It’s the perfect balance of elegance, durability, and practicality—just like the women we design for.
Here’s everything you need to know about why this combination is the heart of LAS jewelry.
What Is 92.5% Silver (Sterling Silver)?
Sterling Silver, also known as 92.5 Silver, is an alloy made of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper). Pure silver (99.9%) is too soft for making wearable jewelry—it bends easily and scratches fast. By adding a small percentage of other metals, the silver becomes stronger and more durable, making it ideal for long-lasting accessories.
Why Rhodium? A Game-Changer in Jewelry
Rhodium is a rare, precious metal from the platinum family. It’s known for its extremely bright, reflective finish and incredible resistance to corrosion. At LAS, we use Rhodium Electroplating (E-coating) to coat all our silver jewelry, giving it an added layer of protection and luxury.
The Top Advantages of Rhodium-Coated 92.5 Silver Jewelry
1. Tarnish Resistance
Silver naturally reacts with air and moisture, leading to oxidation and tarnish over time. Rhodium acts as a barrier between the silver and the environment, preventing discoloration and keeping your pieces looking fresh and shiny—no constant polishing required.
2. Long-Lasting Shine
That beautiful mirror-like finish you see in high-end jewelry? That’s often thanks to rhodium. It gives our pieces a premium, white-gold-like sheen that doesn’t fade easily, even with regular use.
3. Durability for Daily Wear
Between meetings, errands, workouts, and events, your jewelry goes through a lot. Rhodium-coated silver is scratch-resistant and hard-wearing, meaning you can wear it every day without worrying about losing its luster.
4. Hypoallergenic & Skin-Friendly
Both sterling silver and rhodium are gentle on sensitive skin. Our jewelry is nickel-free, which means you can wear it all day, every day, without any irritation or allergic reactions.
5. Lightweight Yet Luxurious
Unlike heavy traditional gold or platinum jewelry, sterling silver is light and comfortable, making it ideal for working women who don’t want their accessories to weigh them down—but still want to look polished and powerful.
