Why We Still Offer Sterling Silver

At Auclair, we’re proud to work with the world’s most precious materials — gold, platinum, and fine gemstones — but we also believe that luxury should be accessible, not exclusive.

That’s why we continue to offer sterling silver as an option across many of our designs.

We know silver isn’t always the "ideal" metal for an engagement ring. It’s softer than gold, more prone to tarnishing, and may not stand up to a lifetime of daily wear in the same way as 14k or 18k gold. But we also know this: not everyone has the budget for a gold or platinum ring, and that shouldn’t stop them from owning something meaningful, beautiful, and made with care.

Sterling silver gives people the chance to invest in a ring that feels special and considered, even if they’re not ready — or able — to spend thousands. For some, silver is a stepping stone. For others, it’s a permanent choice. Either way, it deserves the same level of design, craftsmanship, and respect.

We don't believe in gatekeeping beauty. Whether you’re buying your first ring, proposing on a tight budget, or simply prefer the cool tones of silver, we want you to feel welcome here.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the material — it’s about the intention, the love, and the story behind it.

And that has no price tag.
