Gentle, pure, and trusted for generations — here’s why 925 sterling silver is safest for babies
When it comes to your baby, safety is never optional — especially when something touches their skin every day. From clothing fabrics to skincare products, parents carefully choose what’s gentle and harmless. The same care applies when selecting your baby’s first jewelry.
This is why generations of parents have trusted 925 sterling silver for babies. Not because it’s beautiful (though it is), but because it’s one of the safest, purest, and most skin-friendly metals for delicate little bodies.
At Silvaay, every piece of kids’ jewelry is crafted in certified 925 sterling silver — because Every Childhood Deserves a Keepsake that’s as safe as it is meaningful.
What Does “925 Sterling Silver” Really Mean?
925 sterling silver is a precise, internationally recognized standard.It means the metal contains:
92.5% pure silver
7.5% strengthening alloy (usually copper)
Pure silver on its own is too soft for everyday use. The small alloy addition makes it durable enough to withstand baby movements while keeping it completely skin-safe.
This balance of purity and strength is exactly what makes 925 sterling silver ideal for baby jewelry.
7 Reasons 925 Sterling Silver is the Safest Choice for Babies
1. Naturally Hypoallergenic
925 sterling silver is hypoallergenic, meaning it rarely causes allergic reactions. It’s free from harsh metals that commonly irritate baby skin.
2. Nickel-Free and Toxin-Free
Many low-cost or plated jewelry items contain nickel — a major cause of skin allergies. Certified 925 silver is nickel-free, making it a safer choice for infants and toddlers.
3. Gentle and Smooth on the Skin
Silver jewelry can be polished to an ultra-smooth finish, preventing scratches, rashes, or friction marks on soft baby skin.
4. Lightweight for Everyday Comfort
Babies should never feel weighed down. Sterling silver is light enough for daily wear, whether it’s a nazariya bracelet or anklet.
5. Naturally Antimicrobial
Silver has long been known for its antimicrobial properties. Traditionally, it’s been used for baby utensils, plates, and cups — the same purity makes it ideal for jewelry.
6. Strong Enough for Active Babies
The alloy in 925 silver gives it durability without compromising safety. It can handle crawling, grabbing, and playful movements without breaking easily.
7. Does Not Heat Up Easily
Unlike some metals or plated jewelry, sterling silver doesn’t heat up quickly, making it safer for babies in warm climates.

Why Baby Skin Needs Special Care
Baby skin is much thinner and more sensitive than adult skin. It absorbs materials more easily and reacts faster to irritants. Metals that are safe for adults may still cause rashes, redness, or itching in babies.
