Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is traditional jewellery and what makes it different from fashion jewellery?

Traditional jewellery refers to pieces crafted using time-honoured Indian techniques-Kundan, Polki, Meenakari, and temple work-in fine metals like 925 sterling silver or gold. Unlike fashion jewellery made from base metals, traditional jewellery is BIS-hallmarked, hypoallergenic, and designed to last for generations. At Kicky & Perky, every traditional jewellery piece is handcrafted by Jaipur artisans.

2. What types of ethnic jewellery set are best for a wedding?

For a wedding, the best ethnic jewellery set includes a Polki or Kundan necklace set with matching Chandbali earrings, maang tikka, and bangles. At Kicky & Perky, our bridal ethnic jewellery sets are available in gold-plated 925 sterling silver with Moissanite, Pearl, and gemstone accents-each set gift-ready and BIS-certified.

3. Which traditional necklace for women is best for daily wear?

For daily wear, choose a lightweight traditional necklace for women under 15g-a slim Polki pendant necklace, a moissanite solitaire in a traditional frame, or a minimalist temple-motif chain work best. Pair with 925 sterling silver for hypoallergenic safety. At Kicky & Perky, daily-wear traditional necklaces start from under ₹4,000.

4. What is traditional antique jewellery and how is the oxidised finish created?

Traditional antique jewellery features an oxidised, darkened finish that mimics the patina of aged silver heirlooms. The oxidising process uses a controlled chemical treatment on 925 sterling silver to create the characteristic dark background that makes design details stand out. At Kicky & Perky, all traditional antique jewellery is BIS-hallmarked and skin-safe.

5. How is indian ethnic jewellery different across regions of India?

Indian ethnic jewellery varies dramatically by region. Rajasthan is known for Kundan and Polki indian ethnic jewellery with uncut stones in gold settings. South India is celebrated for temple jewellery with deity motifs and pearls. Bengal favours conch shell and iron bangle traditions. Mughal-era designs influence North Indian ethnic jewellery with intricate lattice patterns and meenakari enamelling.

6. Can I wear traditional jewellery for office or daily wear?

Yes-traditional jewellery works beautifully for office wear when chosen thoughtfully. Opt for smaller Polki stud earrings, a slim traditional pendant necklace, or a single bangle from an ethnic jewellery set. Keep the look focused on one statement piece and let it complement rather than overpower a formal or semi-formal outfit.

7. What occasions are best for a full ethnic jewellery set?

A full ethnic jewellery set is best worn for weddings, engagement ceremonies, sangeet nights, Diwali celebrations, Navratri, Eid, and festive family gatherings. For receptions and bridesmaids, a lighter ethnic jewellery set with just necklace and earrings is appropriate. At Kicky & Perky, our sets are curated specifically for these occasions.

8. Is 925 sterling silver suitable for traditional jewellery?

Yes-925 sterling silver is one of the finest materials for traditional jewellery. Its 92.5% silver purity makes it BIS-hallmark eligible, hypoallergenic, and durable enough for daily and festive wear. Gold-plated and oxidised finishes on 925 silver give traditional jewellery the warm or antique aesthetic without the cost of solid gold.

9. How do I style traditional antique jewellery with modern outfits?

Style traditional antique jewellery as a solo statement over contemporary outfits. Pair oxidised antique earrings with a plain white linen shirt and wide-leg trousers for an editorial fusion look. A traditional antique jewellery necklace worn over a solid-colour palazzo set creates an effortless indo-western aesthetic. Avoid mixing antique pieces with polished gold-let one finish lead.

10. How do I care for traditional jewellery to maintain its finish?

Store each piece of traditional jewellery in a soft anti-tarnish pouch-never pile ethnic jewellery sets together as pieces scratch and tangle. Wipe after every wear with a dry lint-free cloth. Keep traditional jewellery away from perfume, water, and sweat. For oxidised traditional antique jewellery, avoid silver polish-it will remove the intentional dark finish.
