Welcome to Chamini's Frequently Asked Questions.
Find all essential information about our jewelry, orders, delivery, returns, and payments here.
Our jewellery
What materials do you use for your jewellery?
All our jewellery is handmade with carefully selected materials.
It is mainly made of:
- glass beads
- baroque pearls
- stainless steel plated with fine gold
The materials are specified on each product page so that you can make your choice with complete transparency.
Is the jewellery water-resistant?
Our jewellery is made with care. To preserve its shine and extend its lifespan, we recommend avoiding prolonged contact with water, perfumes and chemicals.
Can the jewellery cause allergies?
Our jewellery is made from materials commonly used in jewellery making, such as stainless steel with a fine gold plating, which is generally well tolerated by sensitive skin.
Glass bead and baroque pearl ornaments are also well tolerated.
If you have a known sensitivity or allergy to metals, we advise you to contact us before purchasing.
Can colours vary from the photos?
Shades may differ slightly depending on the light and your screen. As each piece of jewellery is handmade with care, these small variations are part of what makes your piece beautiful and unique.
Is every piece of jewellery unique?
Each piece is handmade in small batches, which makes every piece of jewellery slightly unique, with subtle natural variations.
Can the number of beads vary from one piece to another?
Yes, as each piece is handmade, the number of beads may vary slightly depending on their natural size and shape. The overall length of the jewellery, however, remains the same as stated on the product page.
How do I care for my Chamini jewellery?
See our detailed Care guide for specific advice. In general, avoid contact with water, perfumes and chemicals.
