How do you clean real Polki Jewelry



This form of jewelry was introduced by the Mughals in India. Polki Jewelry is made with unfinished natural diamonds or uncut diamonds. These diamonds are given shape for a basic cut and are polished well in order to make Polki jewelry. Polki Jewelry is extremely heavy and is used as a cheaper option for pure diamond jewelry to be worn as a bridal jewelry or for wedding festivities.

Polki jewelry is more expensive as it uses a lot of cutting and polishing of uncut diamonds. The labor takes up most of the costing. It is elegant and aesthetic. It is sleek and minimal. Duplicacy of this is very rarely found since it is not very easy to replicate the original craft.

DO’s:

  1. The jewelry should be kept away from direct or indirect light and moisture. 
  2. Keep different pieces differently. They should be kept in air tight boxes or bags in order to protect them from moisture. The moisture will end up corroding the pieces if they are not kept properly.

  4. Get your jewelry checked once a year to avoid any kinds of damage or having loose screws.
  5. Always put on these heavy pieces once you are done setting your makeup and hair with sprays. Wait for 5 mins for it to settle down and then put on your jewelry to avoid its contact with any kinds of chemicals present in them. 
  6. While letting your jewelry breathe out, keep it in a moisture free area to make sure there is no kind of corrosion happening to the gemstones.
