Purity and units
| Grade | Note |
|---|---|
| 22K / fine shop silver | Higher silver content; still confirm the stamp |
| 21K / 18K labelled silver | More alloy; price per gram should be lower |
| Traditional | Local category; purity is not automatic |
Weight units match gold: 1 bhori = 11.664 g = 16 ana. Silver is far cheaper per gram, so making charge can be a large share of the ticket. International silver, the dollar and local stock all move the board. Compare with gold if you are choosing a metal.
Silver vs gold as a purchase

FAQ
Is silver priced per bhori like gold?
Many Bangladeshi boards still quote per bhori. Some also show per gram. Convert with 11.664 g = 1 bhori.
Is the live card today’s BAJUS silver rate?
Yes. The tables use the daily BAJUS silver board. Making charge is extra; confirm the shop memo if you are buying jewellery.
Is making charge a bigger deal for silver than gold?
Often yes in percentage terms, because the metal itself is cheap per gram, so the labour/design charge is a larger share of the final bill.
