Fashion Jewellery FAQ - Kundan, Plating, Sizing

Q: What is fashion jewellery, and how is it different from real gold?

Fashion jewellery, also called imitation or artificial jewellery, is made from brass and alloy and finished with a layer of gold, rose gold, rhodium or oxidised silver plating. It is not solid gold or silver and carries no bullion value. It gives the design, weight and finish of traditional Indian goldwork at a small fraction of the cost.

Q: What is Saloni Fashion Jewellery's jewellery made of?

Brass or alloy bases plated in gold, antique gold, rose gold, rhodium or oxidised silver, set with kundan and uncut stones, cubic zirconia (American diamond), pearls, coloured stones and meenakari enamel. The exact material and plating is listed on each product page.

Q: What is the difference between kundan, polki and American diamond?

Kundan uses uncut, flat stones with a matte, milky look and reads traditional and bridal. Polki is similar but uses uncut diamond-like stones with more depth and sparkle. American diamond (cubic zirconia) is a faceted, brilliant-cut stone closest to a modern diamond, better suited to parties and receptions than traditional ceremonies.

Q: Will gold-plated jewellery lose its colour?

All plating wears eventually, and how fast depends on care. Perfume, hairspray, sweat, water and cosmetics strip plating quickest. Put jewellery on last when getting ready, wipe it with a dry soft cloth after wearing, and store each piece in a separate zip pouch away from air.

Q: Where is Saloni Fashion Jewellery located?

Saloni Fashion Jewellery is at F 80, 81 and 82, Hi Life, Phirozshah Mehta Road, Santacruz (West), Mumbai 400054, Maharashtra, India.

Q: What jewellery does an Indian bride need?

A necklace (often a choker plus a longer haram), matching earrings, a maang tikka, bangles or kadas, and a nath or nose ring. Many brides add a hathphool, a kamarband and a kaan chain to support heavy earrings. Buying a matched set avoids mismatched metal tones.

About the jewellery

What is fashion jewellery, and how is it different from real gold?

Fashion jewellery (also called imitation or artificial jewellery) is made from brass and alloy and finished with a layer of gold, rose gold, rhodium or oxidised silver plating. It is not solid gold or silver and carries no bullion value. What it gives you is the design, weight and finish of traditional Indian goldwork at a small fraction of the cost — which is why most people own several fashion jewellery sets and one or two real gold pieces.

What are Saloni's products made of?

Brass or alloy bases, plated in gold, antique gold, rose gold, rhodium or oxidised silver, and set with kundan and uncut stones, cubic zirconia (American diamond), pearls, coloured stones and meenakari enamel. The exact material and plating for each piece is listed on its product page.

What is kundan jewellery?

Kundan is a traditional Indian setting technique where stones are held in place by fine layers of refined metal rather than prongs. In fashion jewellery, kundan-style pieces use uncut glass or crystal stones set into a gold-toned base, giving the flat, milky-white look associated with Rajasthani and Mughal bridal jewellery.

What is the difference between kundan, polki and American diamond?

Kundan uses uncut, flat stones with a matte, milky appearance and reads traditional and bridal. Polki is similar but uses uncut diamond-like stones with more depth and sparkle. American diamond (cubic zirconia, or CZ) is a faceted, brilliant-cut stone that looks closest to a modern diamond and suits parties and receptions more than traditional ceremonies.

Will gold-plated jewellery lose its colour?

All plating wears eventually — how fast depends on how it is treated. Perfume, hairspray, sweat, water and cosmetics strip plating quickest. Put jewellery on last when getting ready, wipe it with a dry soft cloth after wearing, and store each piece in a separate zip pouch away from air. Treated this way, plating lasts substantially longer.

Is your jewellery safe for sensitive skin?

Our pieces are brass and alloy based. Most people wear them without any issue, but anyone with a known nickel sensitivity should be cautious with extended wear, particularly for earrings. If you react to costume jewellery generally, choose designs with a rhodium or thicker gold plating and limit continuous wear.

Buying and ordering

Do I have to be a retailer to buy from Saloni?

No. We are primarily a wholesaler, but we sell single pieces at retail through this website and at our Mumbai showroom. There is no minimum order to buy online.

How do I get wholesale rates?

WhatsApp +91 98705 89560 and tell us what kind of shop you run and which categories you sell. We will share relevant designs and bulk pricing rather than sending a 900-item catalogue.

Can I see the jewellery before buying?

Yes. Our showroom is at F 80, 81 & 82, Hi Life, Phirozshah Mehta Road, Santacruz (West), Mumbai 400054. Buyers are welcome to visit and inspect stock in person — plating tone and weight are difficult to judge from photographs.

Do you ship across India?

Yes, we serve customers and retailers across India. Shipping charges and delivery timelines are shown at checkout and set out in our shipping policy.

What is your returns policy?

Returns and refunds are covered in our refund policy. If something arrives damaged, message us on WhatsApp with photographs as soon as you receive it and we will sort it out.

Choosing the right piece

What jewellery does a bride need?

The standard bridal set is a necklace (often a choker plus a longer haram), matching earrings, a maang tikka, bangles or kadas, and a nath or nose ring. Many brides add a hathphool, a kamarband and a kaan chain to support heavy earrings. Buying these as a matched set avoids the common problem of metal tones not agreeing.

Short or long mangalsutra?

Short mangalsutra (roughly 16 to 20 inches) sits at the collarbone and works under office and western wear. Long mangalsutra (24 to 30 inches) is the traditional length worn with sarees and at ceremonies. Many women own both and switch depending on the day.

How do I know my bangle size?

Indian bangle sizes run from 2.4 to 2.10, measured by internal diameter. If you are unsure — especially when gifting — choose an openable kada or an adjustable bracelet instead of a fixed bangle set.

Which earrings work for daily wear?

Studs and tops. They sit flush on the lobe, weigh very little and stay comfortable through a full day. Save jhumkas for festivals and chandbalis or chandeliers for weddings and receptions.
