The diamond gets the attention, but the metal decides how a piece feels, how it wears and how much it costs. At ORNIVAJEWELS every design is made to order in 925 sterling silver, 14Kt gold or 18Kt gold, each in white, yellow or rose. Here is how to pick.
| 925 Silver | 14Kt Gold | 18Kt Gold | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purity | 92.5% silver | 58.5% gold | 75% gold |
| Durability | Good, softer | Best for daily wear | Very good |
| Colour | Bright white | White, yellow, rose | Richer white, yellow, rose |
| Tarnish | Can darken, easy to polish | Does not tarnish | Does not tarnish |
| Price | Lowest | Mid | Highest |
| Best for | Everyday style, gifts, first fine jewellery | Engagement rings, daily wear | Bridal, heirloom pieces |
White makes a diamond look extra bright and icy, and is the most popular choice for engagement rings. Yellow is warm and classic and looks beautiful on Indian and darker skin tones. Rose is soft and romantic, made with a touch of copper. The colour never changes our price, so choose what you love.
Whichever metal you choose, a little care keeps it shining. Read our jewellery care guide, and if you have not decided on the diamond yet, start with lab grown vs natural diamonds.

14Kt is harder and better for daily wear, especially rings. 18Kt contains more gold, so it has a richer colour and costs more. Both are solid gold.
Sterling silver can slowly darken when exposed to air, moisture and chemicals. Wiping it with a polishing cloth and storing it in a sealed pouch keeps it bright. See our jewellery care page.
No. At ORNIVAJEWELS the price depends on the metal (silver, 14Kt or 18Kt) and the diamond size. White, yellow and rose cost the same.
Yes. The diamond will not scratch or fade. Silver is softer than gold, so take it off for the gym, swimming and housework to keep the setting in shape.
