Oxidised Silver Kada

Rigid bangles and cuffs with heritage-inspired patterns and a softly aged finish — bold enough to wear alone, easy to stack.

The kada guide

Oxidised silver kada, explained

A kada is a thick, rigid bangle or cuff that has been worn across India for generations. An oxidised silver kada has a darkened silver surface that settles into engraved and textured patterns, giving it a bold, antique character that feels at once traditional and modern.

Kada, cuff or bangle?

Bangles are usually slimmer and worn in sets. A kada is heavier and wider, often worn singly as a statement. Open cuffs have a gap at the back and slip on from the side of the wrist.

Getting the right fit

A kada should slide over your hand without force and sit comfortably on the wrist without slipping off. Measure the inner diameter of a bangle you already wear and share it with us — our size guide walks you through it.

How to wear a kada

Wear one bold kada on a bare wrist for an understated statement, or flank it with slimmer bangles for a festive stack. It also pairs beautifully with a rolled-up shirt sleeve. Coordinate with an oxidised ring on the same hand for a complete look.
