Sterling silver, certified and handcrafted in Porto.
Dicci was founded in Porto in 2017 on the belief that handcrafted jewelry should be accessible, wearable, and made to last. The 925 silver collection for men is where that belief meets material substance. Over 100 pieces across rings, necklaces, bracelets, scapulars, pendants, and earrings, every one of them made by hand in Portugal and stamped with the Portuguese contrast mark that certifies 92.5% pure sterling silver.
This is not jewelry that stays in a drawer. It is made to be part of your daily routine.
Why 925 Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is composed of 92.5% pure silver alloyed with copper, which gives the metal its structural strength without compromising its natural shine. The Portuguese contrast mark stamped on every Dicci silver piece is not a brand logo. It is a legal certification applied by the INCM (Imprensa Nacional-Casa da Moeda) that verifies the metal's purity. This is the same standard applied to fine jewelry and silverwork across Portugal for centuries.
Silver has a depth and warmth that stainless steel cannot match. It catches light differently, it feels different on the skin, and it develops a natural patina over time that gives each piece a character unique to the way you wear it. If you prefer something maintenance-free, Dicci's stainless steel collection offers the same designs in a more forgiving material.

From Daily Wear to Special Moments
925 silver works across every context. A thin foxtail chain under a dress shirt is understated and professional. A hammered ring paired with a natural stone signet ring creates a layered look for the weekend. A scapular worn close to the skin carries personal significance that does not need to be visible to anyone else.
The collection is deliberately wide in range because not every day calls for the same energy. Some days you want one subtle ring. Other days you want chains, rings, and a bracelet. Sterling silver scales with you because the material has enough presence to stand alone and enough restraint to share space with other pieces.
How to Care for 925 Silver
- Avoid direct contact with perfumes, creams, sunscreen, and chemical products
- Remove jewelry before intense physical activity, swimming, or showering
- Store pieces in a dry, enclosed space when not in use to limit air exposure
- Polish occasionally with a soft silver polishing cloth to restore original shine
Over time, sterling silver may develop a slight patina from contact with air and skin. This is entirely natural and characteristic of genuine silver. Some wearers prefer the aged look. If you want the original brightness back, a quick polish does the job in seconds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is 925 silver good for everyday wear?
Yes. Sterling silver is durable enough for daily use. It may develop a natural patina over time from exposure to air and skin oils, which is normal and easily reversed with a polishing cloth.
What does the Portuguese contrast mark mean?
It is an official hallmark applied by the INCM (Imprensa Nacional-Casa da Moeda) that certifies the silver content is at least 92.5% pure. This is a legal guarantee of metal quality, not a decorative stamp.
How does 925 silver compare to stainless steel?
Silver is a precious metal with a richer, warmer tone but requires occasional care. Stainless steel is virtually maintenance-free and more resistant to water and chemicals. Dicci offers both across every jewelry category so you can choose what fits your life. Explore the stainless steel collection.
Can I mix 925 silver with stainless steel?
Absolutely. The slight tonal difference between the two metals creates a natural, textured look when layered. Many Dicci customers wear silver and steel together daily.
Are the stones in the rings natural?
Yes. All stones used in Dicci's silver rings, including onyx, labradorite, lapis lazuli, turquoise, tiger eye, and emerald, are natural. Each stone varies slightly in color and pattern, which is part of what makes every piece unique.
