About the jewellery
Is this real gold?
No. Vandami makes premium fashion and imitation jewellery. Our pieces are built on brass, copper alloy or German silver and finished with gold tone, rose gold tone, rhodium or oxidised plating. They are not precious-metal jewellery and carry no hallmarking. Every piece lists its base metal and plating on its page.
What are the stones?
Depending on the piece: polki-look stones, kundan, cubic zirconia, pearl, and coloured doublets. Each piece lists its stones and stone count. These are not certified precious gemstones.
Will it turn my skin green, or go black?
Pieces marked anti-tarnish carry a protective coat applied over the plating, which is what prevents this in ordinary wear. Keep any piece away from perfume, water and sweat, and store it in its pouch. See Jewellery Care.
How long will it last?
Worn and stored as we recommend, an anti-tarnish piece holds its finish through years of occasion wear. Our jewellery is designed for weddings, festivals and celebrations rather than daily wear. Contact with water, sweat and chemicals will shorten the life of any plated jewellery.
Ordering
How do I know it will fit?
Every piece lists its size and dimensions: length, drop or diameter as worn. Measure against something you already own. Our Size Guide walks through it.
