Silver has been known since the ancient times as a precious metal. Along with Gold, it finds mention in the Vedas numerous times. So what makes it one of the most popular precious metals in India? For one, it is a lot more affordable than gold and secondly it has strong religious links. Not to mention that it is a pleasant metal which has long been associated with feelings of calm and peace. Therefore, it goes without saying that Silver rakhis are extremely popular amongst the Indian middle class. |

Popularity Of Silver Rakhis
If Rajput queen Rani Padmini had belonged to this age, she would have got the option of sending a silver Rakhi to Mughal emperor Humayun through e-mail to save her honor! Who knows, during that era too, she might have sent a diamond Rakhi to him if one takes into cognizance the usual royal regalia? But, that was more of diplomacy than mere `Raksha Bandhan'.
However, regardless of the usual cynicism, Silver Rakhis are very charming and there's no denying that. If you wish to make your brother feel special this Rakhi, go out and get him a beautifully adorned Silver Rakhi along with a pack of Rakhi sweets . Now who can resist that? Another advantage of buying a Silver Rakhi is that your brother can cherish it for life instead of the usual Resham Rakhis that wear out after a while. And the fact that Silver Rakhis are less expensive as compared to Gold Rakhis helps.

However they charge in dollars so they are a wee bit expensive.
