Oxidised Silver Jewellery

Oxidised silver has a darkened, antique finish that brings every carved line and motif into relief. At Motifs, each oxidised piece is handcrafted in 925 sterling silver by our artisans in India, inspired by tribal, temple and heritage jewellery.

Styles in the collection

• Oxidised necklaces and chokers — tribal pendants, coin necklaces and goddess chokers.
• Oxidised earrings and jhumkas — long danglers, ghungroo jhumkas and temple-style earrings.
• Oxidised nose pins, rings and bracelets — small pieces with strong character.
• Waist chains and accessories — kamarbandh and statement pieces for festive dressing.

Oxidised silver pairs beautifully with handloom saris, cotton kurtas and simple western wear, and the finish deepens with wear. It sits alongside Motifs' wider range of handcrafted silver and gold jewellery, all made in India.

Caring for oxidised silver

Store each piece in its pouch, away from moisture and perfume. Wipe with a soft dry cloth; avoid silver dips and polishing cloths, which remove the oxidised finish.
