Anklets
How to choose anklets
Sub-type first
Decide between Clothing & Accessories cord anklets and Jewellery & Watches chain types based on dress code.
Pick the metal
Material choice matters: 925 sterling silver and stainless steel last longest, while pewter gives a handmade weight.
Choose colour
Colour range spans silver, gold, grey, blue, black, yellow, white, brown, pink, green, so match to skin tone or wardrobe.
Clasp or knot
Clasp style is a tradeoff: link chains need a secure fastening, adjustable cords sacrifice formality for fit.
Check hallmark
Hallmarked 925 pieces give purity assurance, but some listed as silver or metal do not carry that mark.
What's good
- body
- Sterling silver and 925 sterling silver anklets resist rust and suit sensitive skin, making them a safe daily wear choice.
- heading
- Fine silver
- body
Things to watch
- Silver and sterling silver darken over time, especially in damp UK air, and need polishing.
- Cord and cotton anklets can fray or fade if worn in the sea or shower, limiting their lifespan.
- Pewter pieces are heavy and lack the fine hallmark of 925 sterling, so they suit statement looks over dainty ones.
- Fixed length chain anklets (curb, belcher) require knowing your ankle measurement, or they will not close.
- Stainless steel and metal colours stick to silver, grey, or black, with few bright tones for those wanting colour.
Care & maintenance
Wipe metals
Wipe silver, 925 sterling, and gold filled anklets with a lint free cloth after wearing.
Dry cords
Remove cotton or cord types before bathing to keep the fibres from weakening.
Inspect beads
Check glass bead knots every few weeks, as tension can loosen with movement.
Separate storage
Store pewter and metal pieces apart from sterling to prevent harder surfaces scratching softer ones.
