925 Sterling Silver

SMUK believes in the quiet power of nature.

That is why we choose to work with materials that embody authenticity, using 925 sterling silver as our main metal.

Just like natural gemstones, silver carries a gentle energy born from the earth.

Since ancient times, it has been cherished as a symbol of intuition, emotion, and protection, quietly accompanying people through their lives.

In recent years, many accessories have been made from stainless steel or brass coated to appear silver, but even if they look similar, the difference in material makes a significant impact on how they feel against the skin and how comfortably they can be worn over time.

At SMUK, we carefully select every element with sincerity, including the parts you cannot see, to create jewelry that feels natural, comfortable, and made to be worn for years to come.

The Choice of Silver 925 — Jewelry that Lives with the Power of Nature

At SMUK, we use four types of plating finishes, each selected to suit the design and materials of the piece.

Rhodium Plating — A rare platinum-group metal. Tarnish and scratch resistant, with a bright, clear silver tone. Gentle on sensitive skin.

18K Gold Plating — 75% fine gold over sterling silver. Warm, deep gold color that flatters all skin tones.

14K White Gold Plating — 58.3% fine gold with a soft, cool white tone. Pairs beautifully with pearls and delicate designs.

Gold Vermeil — Sterling silver (925) base with a gold layer 2.5+ microns thick. More durable than standard plating with a longer-lasting shine.
