Maahi Navaratna Ear Studs

Handcrafted jewellery is made to be worn and treasured. Its small variations add to its beauty and uniqueness, and a little care keeps it that way.

• The gems sit in raised settings around the edge, so the stud can catch on hair or a dupatta; lift fabric away when removing it.
• Navaratna brings together nine gems of different hardness, including softer pearl and coral: keep it away from chemicals and water, and avoid ultrasonic or steam cleaning.
• Rose-cut diamonds are hard but can chip with a sharp knock.
• Put it on after perfume, hairspray and make-up, and take it off first at the end of the day.
• Remove it before bathing, swimming, exercise and sleep.
• After wearing, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth.
• Store it on its own, in its box or a soft pouch.
• Have the settings checked by Arnav once a year.
