Defining Polki Jewellery
Polki jewellery mostly symbolizes those adornments manufactured with raw, uncut, and unpolished polki diamonds, formerly set in 22K gold only (nowadays in both 18K & 22K). Jadau settings technique is widely popular amongst the artisans while manufacturing mainstream polki diamond jewellery. But the term ‘Polki’ dates back to the Mughal period, when manufacturers used to create perfect pieces of jewellery, with raw charm and shimmer.
Here at La Marque-M, we created these masterpieces combining modern trends with the ethnic and organic legacy of polki diamonds. Unlike others, we tried to keep it away from that huge,heavyweight concept of polki jewellery items, and bringing the artistry from Jaipur to Delhi, we curated these exceptional designs to meet your daily needs of wearing such a piece of jewellery featuring traditional touch on modern aesthetics.
Reasons Behind Being the ‘Royal’
By origin, polki diamond jewellery comes with a royal appeal. Historically, Indian queens, begums, brides from royal families usually preferred these jewellery items. As averages say, an artisan can require around 300 hours to manufacture a proper bridal polki jewellery set.
Today, even after 250-300 years, the same grandeur is retained. No machine has either been made to alter the hand-setting technique for polki diamonds. Yes, other types of polki settings are also there, but the authenticity still lies in that time taken to create one particular piece of a lifetime. Every jewellery, every stone, every artisan takes it to a different level, making it something more than jewellery.

Real Polki vs Imitations- How to Stay out of Frauds?
Unlike gold and diamond jewellery items, transparency is very much needed while purchasing polki jewellery. Like ours, we always provide proper certifications and bifurcations.
Texture: Due to the uncut and unpolished nature of polki diamonds, the overall jewellery comes with a less-flashy, old fashioned finish. Too flashy or over-shining often marks it as imitation or artificial jewellery.
Flaws and Cracks: Real polki diamonds often come with natural crack-like flaws and black spots inside. Though higher qualities are there, there are still flaws. So, check for the flaws while purchasing it.
Weight: Unlike our minimalistic jewellery, mainstream polki diamond jewellery comes in heavier weights due to 22K gold usage and the density of natural, uncut diamonds.
Certification: While buying royal polki diamond jewellery, ask our seller for proper hallmark (BIS) and diamond certification from reputed labs like IGI or GIA. It may cost a bit more to buy certified polki diamond jewellery, but it clarifies your way for the future in case of exchange or return.
Make it Clear about Returns & Exchanges: While you are about to buy polki diamond jewellery, ask your jewellery store about its return and exchange policies, and make it sure that the statement is also mentioned in the receipt of your jewellery purchase.
Reputed Seller: Always prefer to buy polki diamond jewellery from a renowned store having a transparent and famous name in the local marketplace.
Manufacturing Polki Diamond Jewellery: a form of Art
Unlike other forms of jewellery, polki jewellery requires handmade sketches as its designs. No CAD (computer-aided design) or CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) can be done. Those few steps are as follows:
Designing: Raw sketches are demonstrated to the artisans along with the requirements of the consumer.
Casting: Though ours are in hallmarked 14kt gold, most mainstream polki diamond jewellery items are made in 18kt or 22kt gold. So, gold frames are cast to match the design for further stone settings.
Setting or Jadai: Once polished, those gold frames are sent for setting the stones. A specially thin gold foil is placed under the polki (called ‘daak’) to enhance the inner shine of the stone, and then it is set inside that particular gold frame.
Meenakari or Enamaling: It is one of the most meticulous step of manufacturing polki diamond jewellery, as it plays a major role in decorating the jewellery in its whole.
Polishing & Finishing: After all these steps are done, a final touch of polish is added to its surface to give it an extra shimmer, and all those finger spots that came on it during meena and setting.
Taking Care of Royal Polki Diamond Jewellery
Polki is the most delicate form of the natural diamond, hence requires immense care in order to maintain the luster on a long run.
Keep it Away from Moisture: Moisture affects the shine of polki diamond jewellery, making it dull over time. Keeping it inside an air-tight container is the best way to store it.
Cleaning: Always be careful while cleaning, and remember to use dry microfibre cloth only. Even very slight usage of water or any other chemical can result in permanent damage.
Storage: Proper storage of polki diamond jewellery is very necessary. Wrap every single piece of a set individually with a soft piece of cloth, and keep them inside an air-tight container. Rubbing one another can result in scratches.
Regular Check: At least once every year, take your royal polki diamond jewellery to your jeweller for stone safety measures and proper cleanings.
