Silver Chains for Sale | Silver Charms | Silver Bracelets | Fraser Ross

Often you’ll hear people say that they are a “gold person” or a “silver person”, what they mean by this is their preference for colour of precious metal and what they believe suits them best. Silver and white gold are extremely close in colour, though silver is lighter in weight and considerably cheaper to purchase than white gold. The real reason one might choose silver chain over white gold is simply the price, because unless you’ve got both precious metals right next to each other telling the difference by just looking is actually very difficult to the untrained eye. Sterling silver does however, tarnish in time and exposure to certain elements, silver tarnishes much faster on people who live in hot climates or those who exercise regularly due to a chemical compound found in sweat that reacts with the metal and causes tarnish to occur. Tarnish says nothing about the quality of silver, even the Queen’s silver tarnishes from time to time but is regularly buffed and polished to perfection so you would never know. Tarnish isn’t a large problem and can be wiped away with a little help from a silver polishing cloth or a visit to the jeweller.


Gold jewellery doesn’t tarnish in the same way as silver jewellery does and it takes a to longer to become as obvious. Silver jewellery goes a dull grey in the worst parts of the tarnish and gold loses it’s beautiful gleam and slightly dulls in appearance. Taking your jewellery to a jeweller to have it cleaned every 6-12 months is a fabulous idea, they can clean your chain completely free of tarnish and debris and they can also examine whether there are any signs of wear that need to be addressed.

We stock a huge range of sterling silver chains in many styles which we can make to any length, this means you can have the design (and precious metal) of your choice made into a bracelet, anklet or silver necklace to the exact length that will fit you perfectly. In addition to our necklaces, we have silver bracelets to mix and match to create a matching set. Our silver charm bracelets have been selected for their open link styles, making attaching and wearing charms easier for these chosen styles.



These styles are typically long curb, cable and belcher chain styles, the larger, open links allow for easy fitting of charm jump rings to hold your charms in place. Belcher chains are one of the most suitable and the smaller widths have more links per inch so you can add even more charms to a finer bracelet. We range over 4600 charms (and always growing), order some silver charms and a bracelet and we will send you the finished product made just for you and ready to wear. We offer this service with all chains and charms so you can wear your design straight away.

Silver Bracelets Chains Made in Australia - Fraser Ross - Call Us : 13004CHAIN

Silver bracelets are a great way to show off your unique style, and Fraser Ross wants you to know that we have the very best sterling silver chain jewellery in Australia. Silver and gold have always been the most coveted precious metals in the world, but there's something different about silver that draws people to it. Maybe it's the rich history of silver, or perhaps some people are mesmerized by the legend behind it. Whatever the reason, silver is sure to remain highly popular with collectors and consumers alike.


The History Of Silver

Shortly after the discovery of copper around 4200 B.C., silver began to be used as a currency in ancient civilizations. Gold had been discovered nearly a thousand years before. The epicenter of silver production was around Greece and Crete, but some locations in the East were seeing spikes in the amount of silver being unearthed. The silver mining capital of the world became Spain in about 100 A.D., and a wealth of countries were discovered to have silver from 750 A.D. to 1200 A.D..

In 1492, the largest discovery of silver deposits was made in the New World. Silver mining exploded from there, and soon 85% of the world's silver production was on the North American continent, particularly in Mexico. Parts of Central and South America were also crucial to the world's silver supply in countries like Peru and Bolivia. Today, the world's silver mines produce over 671 million troy ounces yearly.


The Legend Of Silver

Have you ever wondered where the mysticism surrounding silver came from? Many cultures believed that silver had properties that could repel monsters and evil spirits. The most famous silver myth is the “silver bullet” that could kill a werewolf. It was also said to be able to kill witches and oust vampires masquerading as humans.

Many goddesses in various cultures are depicted with silver arrows or are associated with silver in some other way. The Greek goddess Artemis is one good example, but Hindu and Islamic goddesses also use silver as a calling card. It's even said that Egyptians considered their bones to be made of silver, whereas their skin was made of gold.

The Truth About Silver

Any way you slice it, silver is a beautiful and valuable precious metal. That's why Fraser Ross only sells 925 sterling silver for all precious metal silver chains and jewellery items.

Curb chains are an old favourite and are often selected for people who want a little bit of extra sparkle in their lives. The way curb chains are bevelled offers more surface area and angles for the beautiful silver links to throw any light that hits them.


Belcher chains have alternating, circular links that are a popular choice as charm bracelets or locket bracelets. They’re also a popular choice as necklaces because of their sturdiness and ability to hold a heavier pendant.

Cable chains are the belcher chains delicate little sister, so they aren’t really suited to holding pendants but they do look fabulous on their own and layered with other bracelets of varying thickness. 

Figaro chains reached their popularity among Italian Men as bracelets and necklaces but are equally as popular with women as charms bracelets as their links are sturdy enough to hold a decent amount of charms. You can also wear them plainly and enjoy their beautiful links as they are.
