Zilvra925 is an artisanal jewelry brand founded by Sandeep Sharma under Sandeep Enterprises, a sole proprietorship based in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. We specialize in beautifully crafted 925 sterling silver jewelry set with ethically sourced lab grown diamonds. Every piece is designed in our Agra workshop and made to order by skilled Indian artisans who combine generations of craftsmanship with modern design sensibilities. Our mission is simple: to make stunning, certified fine jewelry accessible to everyone — without the traditional retail markup.
Our workshop and business headquarters are located at 27B Akhilesh Tower, Hariparwat, Agra, Uttar Pradesh 282001, India. We’re proud of our Indian heritage and completely transparent about it. Your jewelry is handcrafted in Agra — a city world-renowned for its artisanal craftsmanship — and shipped directly to your door in the United States. This direct-to-you model is how we keep our prices fair while maintaining the highest quality standards.
Currently, Zilvra925 operates exclusively online through our Shopify store at Zilvra925.com. We don’t have physical retail locations at this time, which helps us keep overhead costs low and pass those savings directly to you. Our workshop in Agra is where the magic happens — it’s not open to the public, but we do have plans for future US expansion that may include showrooms or pop-up experiences. Sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know.
All prices on Zilvra925.com are displayed in US Dollars (USD). This is the only currency we accept, and all transactions are processed in USD — so what you see is always exactly what you’ll pay. There are no currency conversion surprises on your credit card statement.
Absolutely. We take payment security very seriously. All transactions on Zilvra925.com are processed through PCI DSS-compliant payment gateways — Razorpay for credit and debit card payments, and PayPal for their secure checkout option. Our entire website uses industry-standard SSL encryption (you’ll see the padlock icon in your browser), ensuring your personal and payment information is always protected. We never store your full credit card details on our servers.
Products & Materials
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds that are created in a controlled laboratory environment rather than mined from the earth. They have the exact same chemical composition, physical properties, and optical characteristics as mined diamonds — because they are diamonds. The only difference is their origin. Using advanced technology that replicates the natural diamond-growing process, we create stunning stones without the environmental and ethical concerns associated with traditional mining.
Yes — lab-grown diamonds are 100% real diamonds. The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) explicitly recognizes lab grown diamonds as genuine diamonds. They are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds. Even professional gemologists cannot tell the
difference without specialized equipment. When you purchase a lab-grown diamond from Zilvra925, you’re getting a certified, authentic diamond — just one that was created with modern technology rather than excavated from the ground.
The “925” stamp on our jewelry indicates that the piece is made from sterling silver — an alloy containing 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper) for added strength and durability. Pure silver (99.9%) is too soft for jewelry, so the 925 standard ensures your piece is both beautiful and built to last. All Zilvra925 silver jewelry is officially BIS hallmarked (HM/C-8890238712), which is India’s official certification of silver purity — your guarantee of quality.
Yes! We offer select pieces in 18k gold vermeil — a luxurious, thick layer of 18-karat gold electroplated over our 925 sterling silver base. Gold vermeil gives you the rich appearance and warmth of solid gold at a more accessible price point. Look for the gold vermeil option on individual product pages where available.
Yes, we can provide a GIA (Gemological Institute of America) certificate as an add-on for individual pieces. As a GIA client (#300301164319), we work directly with the world’s most respected diamond grading authority. A GIA certificate provides an independent, authoritative assessment of your diamond’s quality and characteristics. Simply select the GIA certification option when purchasing eligible items, or contact us at zilvra925@gmail.com to add it to your order.
We’ve made ring sizing easy. Visit our Ring Size Guide page for a printable sizing chart and detailed measuring instructions. Not sure you measured correctly? We’ll mail you a free reusable ring sizer — just email us at zilvra925@gmail.com with your mailing address and we’ll send one out right away. If you order the wrong size, don’t worry — exchanges for a different size are available within our 30-day return window, subject to availability.
Yes, we offer complimentary custom engraving on select pieces. You can add a personal touch with up to 15 characters — perfect for initials, a special date, or a meaningful word. Engraving options are shown on eligible product pages. Because engraved pieces are customized just for you, they are final sale and cannot be returned unless defective.
Ordering & Payment
We accept all major credit and debit cards — Visa, Mastercard, and American Express — processed securely through Razorpay. We also offer PayPal as an alternative secure checkout option. All payments are processed in USD.
Yes! Your US-issued credit or debit card will work seamlessly on our website. All transactions are processed in USD, so there are no foreign transaction fees from our side. Your payment is processed through internationally recognized payment gateways, and your bank handles any currency processing on their end just like any other online purchase.
You may cancel your order within 24 hours of placing it, provided it has not yet been dispatched from our workshop. Since each piece is handcrafted to order, we begin production quickly. To cancel, email us immediately at zilvra925@gmail.com with your order number. Once an order has moved into production or been dispatched, it cannot be cancelled, but you may still return it under our 30-day return policy.
Every Zilvra925 order includes our signature gift packaging at no extra charge. Your jewelry arrives in a premium Zilvra925 gift box, nestled in an anti-tarnish pouch, complete with a care card, authenticity certificate, and BIS hallmark card. It’s a beautiful unboxing experience, whether the gift is for you or someone special.
Absolutely! During checkout, you can enter a separate shipping address for your gift recipient. We can also include a personalized gift message card — just add your message in the gift notes field at checkout. The recipient will receive the beautifully packaged jewelry, and no pricing information is included in the shipment.
Shipping
We currently ship to the United States. We have plans to expand to additional countries soon — follow us on social media or sign up for our newsletter to be notified when we add new destinations.
Shipping takes 20-30 business days from the time your order is placed. This timeframe includes 1-3 days of order processing (each piece is handcrafted to order in our Agra workshop), quality inspection, customs documentation, and international transit via DHL, FedEx, or
UPS. We know this is longer than typical domestic shipping, and we appreciate your patience — this timeline reflects the care and craftsmanship that goes into each piece, plus international transit from India to the United States.
We charge a flat rate of $19 per order for shipping to anywhere in the United States. This is a flat rate — it doesn’t matter how many items you order or where in the US you live, the shipping cost stays the same.
No. The price you see on our website is the total price you’ll pay — period. All customs duties, import taxes, and clearance fees are included in the product price and covered by us. There are no surprise charges when your package arrives.
Yes — full insurance is included on every single order at no additional cost. Your jewelry is fully protected from the moment it leaves our workshop until it arrives in your hands.
Once your order is dispatched, you’ll receive an email with your tracking number and a direct link to track your package in real time. You can also track your order by visiting our Order Status page and entering your order number and email address.
Great question — transparency is important to us. The 20-30 day timeframe breaks down as follows: 1-3 days for order processing and handcrafting your piece in our Agra workshop, 1 day for quality inspection and certification, 1 day for customs documentation preparation, 10-15 days for international transit via DHL/FedEx/UPS from India to the US, 2-5 days for US customs clearance, and 3-5 days for final local delivery. We don’t keep inventory — each piece is made to order, which means your jewelry is crafted specifically for you. We believe the wait is worth it for handcrafted, certified fine jewelry delivered to your door.
Returns & Warranty
We offer a 30-day return policy on all non-custom items. To be eligible for a return, your jewelry must be unworn, in its original condition, and returned with all original packaging, tags, and certificates intact. Items showing signs of wear, damage from use, or missing packaging cannot be accepted for return.
To initiate a return, email us at zilvra925@gmail.com with your order number and reason for return. We’ll provide you with a Return Authorization (RA) number and detailed return instructions. Pack the item securely in its original packaging with all certificates and tags, write the RA number on the outside of the package, and ship it to our address in Agra, India. Once we receive and inspect the return, your refund will be processed.
The customer is responsible for the cost of return shipping to our workshop in Agra, India. We strongly recommend using a tracked and insured shipping service, as we cannot be responsible for returns that are lost in transit. The original shipping fee of $19 is non-refundable.
Refunds are processed within 14 business days of us receiving your returned item. Once our quality team inspects and approves the return, the refund will be issued to your original payment method (credit card or PayPal). Depending on your bank or card issuer, it may take an additional 5-10 business days for the refund to appear on your statement.
All Zilvra925 jewelry comes with a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects. This covers issues like loose stone settings, clasp failures, or craftsmanship problems that occur under normal wear. The warranty does not cover damage from accidents, misuse, normal wear and tear, loss, or theft. If you believe your piece has a manufacturing defect, email us at zilvra925@gmail.com with photos and your order number.
In the rare event that your jewelry arrives damaged, email us at zilvra925@gmail.com within 48 hours of delivery with clear photos of the damage and your order number. We’ll either send you a replacement of the same item or issue a full refund — your choice. You will not be responsible for return shipping costs for damaged items. Every order is fully insured, so we’ll handle the claim process.
Yes! Size exchanges are available within 30 days of delivery, subject to availability of the requested size. The process is the same as a return — email us for an RA number, ship the original piece back to us, and we’ll send you the new size once we receive the return. If the new size is unavailable, we’ll issue a refund instead.
Piercing
Zilvra925 partners with certified, professional piercing studios across the United States to offer safe, hygienic piercing services for our customers. Rather than operate our own piercing locations, we’ve built a network of trusted, vetted piercing professionals who meet our high standards for cleanliness, technique, and customer care.
Finding a piercing partner is easy. Visit our Piercing Services page and enter your ZIP code to see a list of certified partner studios in your area. Each partner has been carefully vetted by our team and maintains all required health department certifications and insurance.
Piercing services are priced separately by our partner studios, not by Zilvra925. When you purchase jewelry from us and book through a partner studio, you’ll pay the studio directly for the piercing service. We provide the referral and ensure you’re connected with a qualified professional — the studio sets their own pricing based on the type of piercing and their local market rates.
