Care instructions
How do I care for my jewelry?
To keep your jewelry looking beautiful for years to come, please follow these simple care tips:
The Golden Rule: Your jewelry should be the last thing you put on in the morning and the first thing you take off at night.
Keep it Dry: Avoid wearing your jewelry while showering, swimming, or exercising. Water, salt, and chlorine can damage the finish.
Avoid Chemicals: Apply perfumes, lotions, and hairspray before putting on your jewelry. Chemicals in these products can cause tarnish or fading.
Storage: When not in use, store your jewelry in a cool, dry place—ideally in an airtight bag or the jewelry box provided.
Cleaning: Gently wipe your jewelry with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing

How should I style "Mixed Wardrobe" jewelry?
The beauty of our Fusion pieces is their versatility! They are designed to bridge the gap between traditional South Asian artistry and contemporary fashion. You can pair them with a formal Saree for a wedding, or style them with a blazer and jeans for a polished, everyday look. One piece, endless possibilities.
Do you ship from the USA?
Yes, we are a small team based in the States! Every single order is hand-inspected by us and shipped directly from our home to yours. We take pride in our fast shipping so you can enjoy your heritage pieces as soon as possible.
Why does my jewelry have a slight scent?
✨ A mild scent may be noticed when you first receive your jewelry. This is due to the traditional polishing and finishing process used to create each piece.
It is completely normal and temporary, and will naturally fade after airing the jewelry for a short time or gently wiping it with a soft cloth.
This does not affect the quality, safety, or wearability of the piece.
