Silver Chandbali Earrings
Crescent-moon chandbali in certified 925 silver.
A chandbali is a crescent-moon shaped Indian earring — chand means moon, bali means hoop — a Mughal-court design that remains the standard festive earring across north India. This collection brings together anokhi's 925 sterling silver chandbali: rhodium-finished crescents pavé-set with lab-created CZ, and oxidised temple-style crescents hung with freshwater cultured pearl drops. Chandbali is normally a gold purchase; in solid sterling silver the same silhouette costs a fraction, and we state the exact silver weight in grams so you know precisely what you are paying for. BIS hallmarked for 925 purity, with a certificate of authenticity in every box.
About silver chandbali earrings
What is a chandbali earring?
A chandbali is a crescent-moon shaped earring — chand (moon) plus bali (hoop) — a Mughal-origin design worn for weddings and festivals across north India. It usually has a small stud or hook top with the crescent hanging below.
Can chandbali be made in silver instead of gold?
Yes, and it is the sensible way to own the shape. A 6 g pair in 925 sterling silver costs a small fraction of the same silhouette in gold, and with a rhodium finish the colour reads close to white gold.
Are silver chandbali comfortable to wear?
Our pairs are 6–7 g total with the crescent worked hollow rather than cast solid. They are festive-weight earrings — comfortable for a full function, though most people keep them for occasions rather than office days.
What stones are set in them?
Lab-created cubic zirconia on the rhodium designs, and freshwater cultured pearls on the oxidised temple-style pair. No diamonds, no natural gemstones, and no astrological claims.
