Demystifying Indian Bridal Ornaments
When selecting your bridal necklace and ear sets, jewelers will show you three primary aesthetics: 22K yellow gold, uncut Polki diamonds, and stone-set Kundan. Understanding their purity and resale dynamics prevents costly buyer regret.
Comparing the Three Categories
- 22K BIS Hallmarked Gold: Best long-term investment. Retains maximum resale value with standardized transparent melt valuations.
- Polki (Uncut Natural Diamonds): Raw, un-faceted diamonds set in gold foil. Exudes royal Mughal sophistication but has variable diamond resale deductions.
- Kundan: Glass stones set in pure 24K gold foil over a lac base. More budget-friendly than Polki while providing majestic royal grandeur.
