A Pure 92.5 Sterling Silver Krishna Tilak Pendant with Silver Tilak Earrings, and with gold plating on elements of the design.

This means you’re not just looking for plain silver, but something with a dual-tone or highlighting effect, where certain parts of the Tilak design (or elements of the pendant/earrings themselves) are plated with gold. This adds a layer of sophistication, traditional opulence, and visual contrast.

Here’s a breakdown of where to find such a set in India:

1. Pure 92.5 Sterling Silver Base
Purity: Confirmed 92.5% silver, 7.5% alloy. This is the quality standard for durable and beautiful silver jewelry. Always look for the “925” stamp.

Auspiciousness: Silver is considered pure and auspicious in Vedic traditions.

2. Krishna Tilak Design
Vaishnava Tilak (Urdhva Puṇḍra Tilak): The core design remains the two vertical lines (representing Krishna’s lotus feet) with a central mark (representing Radharani or a Tulasi leaf). This symbolizes devotion to Lord Krishna.

3. Gold Plating
This is the key additional feature you’ve specified. Gold plating on silver jewelry involves applying a thin layer of gold over the sterling silver base.

Aesthetic Enhancement: The gold plating will highlight specific features of the Tilak design, making them stand out against the silver background. For example, the central mark or the outer edges might be gold-plated, or the entire pendant might be silver with a gold-plated inner Tilak design.

Traditional Look: Gold and silver combinations are very traditional in Indian jewelry, often used to symbolize the dual aspects of the Divine (e.g., Radha-Krishna, Lakshmi-Narayana).

Durability of Plating: The longevity of the gold plating depends on its thickness (measured in microns) and the care taken. Thicker plating lasts longer. Over time, gold plating can wear off, exposing the silver underneath, but it can be replated.

4. Matching Set (Pendant + Earrings)
The earrings will feature the same Tilak design, with the same silver and gold-plated elements, ensuring a harmonious and complete look.

Minimalistic yet deeply spiritual, this necklace is perfect for devotees who prefer subtle devotional jewelry suitable for everyday wear. The clean silver finish and refined pendant design make it appropriate for both spiritual and casual settings.

The tilak symbolizes surrender, protection, and remembrance of the Lord, making this necklace a meaningful accessory for daily sadhana.
