Every piece of Jewellery is a labour of love. Each piece of Polki Jewellery is meticulously handcrafted by highly specialized craftsmen. So, when ordering your Polki Jewellery online be patient – since you really can’t rush a work of art!

At Shikherjee, you’re always assured of quality. It is the only certified Polki brand in India. Every piece of jewellery comes with a certificate of authenticity from our inhouse laboratory – for the Polki as well as the gold thus reaffirming the genuiness of all Shikherjee products.

Polki is one of the hardest precious stones, and as a result needs to be set in 22 karat gold, because anything lighter would not be able to hold these stones securely. At Shikherjee, Polki is set only in gold of 22-karat purity. This ensures the durability of all jewellery pieces purchased here.

Using a proprietary rolling technique, shikherjee.com is able to keep the weight of the elements to a minimum, thus keeping the jewellery light and easy to wear. You are charged only for the quantity of gold and the number and size of the Polkis used in each piece.

However, semi-precious stones might be required to be cleaned with a damp cloth and touch of washing liquid to make them shine. Please dry the same carefully.
