We love our shiny gold jewellery but as we wear our gold jewellery regularly it accumulates body oil & grease. So because of this accumulation, our gold tends to lose its shine over time.
We must take care of our gold so that it can retain its shine for a longer period.

1. Wear the ornaments properly- Properly wearing the jewellery is also a type of care for your jewellery. You should not wear your jewellery while washing utensils or while having a bath because when your jewellery comes in contact with soaps & Detergents it corrodes this results in damage to your ornaments.
2. Proper Storage of the ornaments- You should keep your jewellery in a safe place to avoid scratches or chemical contact. You should store your jewellery pieces on velvet trays or in small plastic bags or cloth pouches as it helps in preventing them from scratches

The making charges may vary from 3%-25%
2. Wastage Charges- When an artist crafts a piece of jewellery then the jewellery goes through a series of processes such as melting, Cutting, Shaping & while going through these processes a certain of amount wastage occurs & this wastage is charged from the customer at a percentage included in final Price.
The jewellery that involves stone in it generally has a higher wastage as compared to normal gold. The wastage charges vary from 5-7 %

BIS HALLMARKING -THE SYMBOL OF PURITY
Hello Jewellery Lovers,
We are back with another blog and today's blog is about the BIS hallmarking that helps us to identify pure gold.
BIS Hallmarking is a system through which the purity of gold & silver is determined in the country.
The procedure of hallmarking in India started in April 2000 & the organisation that issues the certificate of purity is known as the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS).
This organisation is responsible for hallmarking the jewellery & it also checks that all the practices as specified under the BIS act are followed.
Signs of BIS Hallmark
There are 4 components of a BIS Hallmark
1. The BIS Logo- It is a standard triangular-shaped mark that states that the purity of gold has been verified under the BIS Lab.
2. Mark of Purity- This mark provides the buyer the information about the amount of gold purity in Karat & fitness number. Fitness number indicates the amount of pure gold in the total alloy.
3. Halmarking centre number - The next mark on hallmarked jewellery is the logo of the hallmarking centre. The halmarking centre assesses the gold to check its purity.
4. The Jeweller's Mark- The jeweller also puts its logo or mark on the jewellery. the logo is embossed on the jewellery itself.

Different Varities of
Gold
Hello jewellery Lovers,
We are back with
another interesting & informative blog.
In this blog,
we are going to discuss three different varieties of gold & the differences
among all three varieties of gold. So let's get started without any further
delay.
1. BIS 916- The first variety of gold that we are going to
discuss is BIS 916. This kind of gold consists of 91.6 Grams of gold per 100
Gram of gold. The categorisation of gold is done based on purity which is
defined in Karats such as 22 Karats,18 Karats,24 Karats, etc. 22 Karat gold is
referred to as BIS 916 gold.
2. Hallmark
Gold - This
type of gold comes with an assurance called a hallmark & to receive this
hallmark gold is processed through a series of steps. The entire process of
hallmarking is conducted by BIS.
3. KDM
Gold- This is
another variety of gold. Earlier gold was made by mixing copper with it due to
some scientific reason in the proportion of 60 % & 40 % respectively &
when the jewellery has melted the purity of jewellery was questionable. So as a
solution copper was replaced by cadmium & the jewellery made from this
mixture was popularly known as KDM gold. However, it was banned by BIS later on
as it was harmful for the health of the workers.

STEPS TO IDENTIFY
FAKE DIAMOND
Diamond Shopping is one of our favourite types of
shopping & not only favourite it is even one of the most expensive
shopping.
When we buy diamonds then we are investing a huge
amount of money. So In a world full of replicas, we must be careful about the
originality of the diamond. So in this blog, we are going to discuss how to
identify fake diamonds.
1. Necessary
documents of purchase - One of the simplest ways for
checking the authenticity of a diamond or to check whether the diamond is fake
or not always to go to a trusted store that provides all the necessary
documents proving the authenticity.
2. Water
Test- This is the most common way of identifying
whether the diamond is real or fake.
To conduct this test fill a bowl with water
& put the diamond stone in it. If the stone sinks to the bottom then it is
real otherwise it is fake.
3. Scratch Test-
This is another test to check whether the diamond is fake or real. We have to
be cautious while doing this test as it may damage your diamond.
A glass plate will be required to conduct this
test. We have to scratch the glass plate with the help of a diamond if there
are some scratches on the glass then the diamond is real.
4. Flame
Test- Another test to identify the fake Diamond is the
flame/ heat test. To conduct this test you will need a lighter. You will have
to blow the flame at the diamond stone for 30-35 Seconds & then immediately
drop it into cold water. If the diamond is real it will remain the same but if
it is fake then it will be broken into pieces.

CERTIFICATIONS OF
DIAMONDS
As we all know that diamonds are very expensive & whenever
we buy diamonds we spend a huge amount of money on them. So due to its high
value, there is always a doubt regarding the originality of diamonds.
In this kind of situation, the certifications play a vital role
in verifying the authenticity or originality of diamonds. These certifications
are issued by several Gemologists & government agencies & one such
agency is Gemological Institute of America.
(GIA) which certifies the diamonds so that they can be used in making
jewellery.
We will now discuss the two most important certificates issued
by the above agency.
1. Diamond Grading Report -
Diamond Grading Report is issued by GIA for a loose diamond. It evaluates the
diamond on four Parameters which are cut, clarity,colour & carat These are
popularly known as the 4 C's of diamond along with this grading report a
diagram of the diamond is also attached.
Note: The GIA report is issued for naturally occurring diamonds
only.
2. Diamond Dossier Report -
This report is similar to the diamond grading report and it is also issued by
GIA itself & it also provides the same information but the only difference
is that it doesn't provide plotted graphs with the report. Instead, it provides
the laser inscription number.

REAL DIAMOND VS
AMERICAN DIAMOND
Every woman wants to have diamond jewellery in her
jewellery collection. Be it a housewife or a working woman every woman wants to
buy diamond jewellery.
One should be very cautious while buying
the same Because American Diamonds are relatively cheaper than Real Diamonds.
So to make sure that you are buying the right jewellery We will be discussing
the difference between Real Diamonds & American Diamonds in today's blog.
1. Scratch
Test- If you scratch the real diamonds stone it
will not show any marks or scratches. Whereas American Diamond will not be able
to handle this test.
2. Breath
Test- To do this test you have to clean the surface of
the diamond and make sure that no marks are left on it & after that you
have to breathe on the stone. After breathing on the stone a fog will appear on
it & if the fog disappears in 2-3 Seconds then you have a real diamond.
3. Reading
Test- This is another test that will help you to check
the authenticity of the diamond. In this test, you have to clean the surface of
the stone and keep it down facing a newspaper and try to read the letters
through the diamond if you are unable to read the letters then your diamond is
real.

GEMSTONES
QUALITY CHECK
Hello Jewellery lovers,
We are back with another informative blog and in this blog, we
will be discussing beautiful & colourful stone jewellery also known as
gemstone jewellery.
Buying gemstones is not an easy task it requires a lot of
research as buying a gemstone involves a huge amount of money a little
carelessness may cause huge monetary loss.
So in today's blog, we will be discussing some of the quality
checks about gemstones.
1. Colour- An important factor that helps us to know about the quality of
gemstone is its colour. The colour of a valuable gemstone will be deep &
concentrated.
For example, if you are buying a ruby then a high-quality ruby
will not be too dark not too light & the colour is called Pigeon's blood.
2. Carat- It is another important factor that is
used to express the weight of the gemstone. A carat is equal to 25 % of a gram.
3. Cut- The next point on the list is the cut of the gemstone
many people confuse cut with the shape of the gemstone but the cut is different
from the shape. The cut of gemstone provides depth to the colour.
4. Grading- Though there is no universally accepted
grading system for gemstones some jewellers use colour grading system known as
the A grading system.
