There’s something uniquely feminine, nostalgic, and powerful about the delicate jingle of an anklet. Especially in India, anklets — or “payal” — have been part of cultural beauty for centuries. But today’s woman is reimagining this traditional piece in a contemporary way. At the centre of this comeback is one material that’s timeless, elegant, and wearable every day: 925 silver.
From boho-chic to bridal elegance, a 925 silver anklet blends heritage with today’s style preferences. Whether worn solo or stacked, these dainty-yet-bold accessories are capturing hearts — and turning heads. Explore handcrafted styles from Vanika Fashion, where the 925 Silver Anklet Collection celebrates both roots and reinvention.
Why 925 Silver Makes All the Difference
Let’s start with what makes 925 sterling silver special. It’s an alloy made from 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other strengthening metals, usually copper. This blend gives you:
● Durability for daily wear
● Brilliant shine with a subtle finish
● Hypoallergenic properties for sensitive skin
● Long-term beauty without tarnishing easily
That means your anklet won’t just look good on day one — it will continue to be part of your collection for years to come, with proper care.
From Tradition to Trend: The Evolution of Anklets
Historically, anklets have been more than just ornaments. In Indian culture, they symbolised femininity, grace, and often, marital status. From intricate bridal pieces to tribal-inspired oxidised styles, they’ve always carried depth.
Today’s take on the anklet? Empowerment. Personality. Edge. It’s no longer just a cultural adornment — it’s a fashion-forward way to express your vibe.
Modern 925 silver anklets come in a variety of designs:
● Sleek single chains for minimalists
● Ghungroo-styled pieces with a musical jingle
● Layered styles for the boho soul
● Tribal oxidised looks that pair well with ethnic outfits
You’ll find all of these styles at Vanika Fashion, crafted for modern-day moods and moments.
How to Style a 925 Silver Anklet
Anklets are surprisingly versatile. Here’s how to wear them with confidence:
1. The Everyday Look
Opt for a delicate single-chain anklet with jeans or casual co-ord sets. Pair with sliders or kolhapuris and a simple bracelet for an effortless yet chic look.
2. Ethnic Elegance
Going traditional? Match a chunky oxidised anklet with a kurta set or a flowy skirt. Add silver earrings and a necklace set for a cohesive ethnic look with a twist.
3. Fusion Statement
Rock your anklet with a chikankari dress or an Indo-Western outfit. Layer with an evil eye charm or toe rings to bring a spiritual-meets-stylish aesthetic to life.
4. Beach or Barefoot
Planning a holiday or a mehendi function? A silver anklet glimmers beautifully in natural light. Wear it barefoot or with open sandals to let it shine.
The Symbolism of Silver on the Feet
There’s a deep-rooted symbolism behind wearing silver on the feet. In Ayurveda and Indian tradition, silver is known for its cooling properties and believed to improve energy flow when worn on the lower limbs.
Wearing silver anklets, especially for women, was often linked to balancing emotions, grounding energy, and attracting positivity — things we could all use a little more of in our daily lives.
Vanika Fashion’s collection thoughtfully nods to this heritage while keeping the designs modern, wearable, and beautifully crafted.
A Beautiful Gift — Full of Meaning
925 silver anklets make for incredibly thoughtful gifts. Whether it’s for your mom, sister, best friend, or even yourself, anklets are intimate, elegant, and never go out of style.

Tips for Anklet Care
Silver may be durable, but a little care ensures long-term brilliance. Here’s how:
● Store your anklet in a soft pouch or box
● Keep away from direct moisture or perfumes
● Wipe clean with a soft cloth after use
● Wear regularly — silver loves skin contact!
With these easy habits, your anklet will age gracefully, just like a good pair of jeans or a leather bag.
Final Thoughts: Every Step, Stylish and Strong
A 925 silver anklet isn’t just jewellery — it’s heritage, identity, and confidence, wrapped around your ankle. It adds rhythm to your walk, power to your outfit, and elegance to your presence.
