The process of creating kundan pieces is as meticulous as it is beautiful. Skilled artisans, known as kundan Karigars, carefully tap pure gold foil into tiny anchor holes. Over many hours, they layer and compress the gold, allowing its natural malleability to fuse the layers together seamlessly. If observed closely, the fine anchor holes are visible, highlighting the craftsmanship involved. This method has been used for centuries not only in jewellery but also in royal ornaments, weapons, and even ceremonial drinking vessels, reflecting India’s deep-rooted understanding of luxury and attention to detail.
Rock crystal quartz is associated with clarity and vision while lapis is a stone of communication.
Made from natural materials in all of their purity means that these rings should be worn with care.
*Unless the term 'eye clean' is stated, all gemstones are expected to have inclusions of varying types, stone lines as well as colour variation from piece to piece. These are all natural qualities of a stone (think of them as the unique fingerprints of a gemstone) and we hand select stones for their individual beauty.
Gemstones and jewellery are not indestructible and should always be worn mindfully, with care. If we take care of our pieces they will remain with us for a very long time.
Our gemstones are carefully hand selected by Alexander (graduated gemmologist) and cut by independent stone cutters in Jaipur according to the gemstones individual beauty.

Jewellery Maintenance at AGJ
At AGJ, our jewellery pieces are all handmade in small batches using 92.5 Sterling Silver (92.5–94% pure silver), unless stated otherwise. As each piece is crafted by hand, slight variations may occur, adding to the uniqueness of each item. Our pieces feature natural gemstones, each personally selected by in-house gemmologist Alexander for its unique beauty. These natural treasures are one-of-a-kind, featuring inclusions, stone lines, and colour variations that serve as the gemstone’s unique fingerprint and add to its charm.
Proper care is essential to maintain the beauty and longevity of your jewellery. Precious metals and gemstones have distinct qualities and limitations, so mindful wear is crucial. Over time, jewellery may naturally develop light tarnish influenced by body chemistry, climate, and exposure to certain chemicals. To restore its shine, gently polish with a soft cotton or silver cloth. For a deeper clean, use a soft toothbrush and mild dish soap to remove dirt and residue.
To preserve your jewellery:
• Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, such as chlorine in swimming pools.
• Remove jewellery before bathing to prevent soap, shampoo, or conditioner buildup.
• Avoid wearing pieces during exercise, strenuous activities, or household chores to reduce the risk of damage.
Certain pieces require special attention. Kundan jewellery, for instance, should never come into contact with liquids, and carved gemstone rings are particularly delicate, requiring extra care.
Necklaces, pearls, and gemstone bead strands are prone to residue buildup due to their proximity to an area they may come in contact with makeup, hair and face products as well as perspiration. Clean them regularly with a soft damp cloth and consider restringing bead strands every 12 months to maintain their integrity. Chains can be cleaned using a soft toothbrush and mild detergent.
The surface of a metal, known as its patina, evolves over time due to wear and environmental factors. This natural process is part of your jewellery's story, giving it a unique character. Patina can be maintained with proper care, including gentle cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals.
Our Gemstones, unless described as “eye clean,” our gemstones may feature natural inclusions, stone lines, and variations in colour from piece to piece. These unique characteristics are a testament to their authenticity, much like the fingerprints of a gemstone. We carefully hand-select each stone for its individual beauty.
We embrace the natural transformation of jewellery over time. Fine scratches, patina, and subtle changes in appearance reflect a life well-loved and add depth and personal history to your cherished pieces—qualities celebrated across cultures for generations.
If you have questions about the care or condition of your jewellery, or if you need personalised advice or assessment, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Your jewellery deserves the care it needs to be treasured for a lifetime.
