Guide to Buying Gold Jewellery Online: 6 Things to Consider Before You Hit ‘Add to Cart’ Is it your first time considering buying real gold jewellery online? Perhaps, you absolutely adore the designs listed with us at Mia by Tanishq. But you’re wary about how to go about the process of buying your first gold jewellery product the online mode. This blog shall equip you with 7 necessary hacks for when you buy real gold online. These will help you go about your first-ever gold jewellery purchase process more confidently!

6 Key Points to Consider While Buying Real Gold Jewellery Online Knowing how to spot real gold protects you from counterfeit buys and ensures your money goes into something truly valuable. Real gold jewellery is not just stunning! It’s built to last, shining bright across generations and making every piece a timeless investment you can wear every day. So, before you make your first online gold jewellery purchase, here are 7 key things to keep in mind: 1. Locate the Trademark Jewellery products, whether they are made of gold, silver or diamond, must be hallmarked as per the Hallmarking Act, 1973. The trademark serves as proof of whether or not the metal which was used in making the jewellery is pure/authentic. It is pretty much impossible for the average person to have the expertise to tell a real piece of gold jewellery from a fake, just with their naked eyes. Thus, the official hallmarking provides an assurance of the standard and quality of the jewellery item you're purchasing online. 2. Check for Branding Branded jewellery products always have a unique brand-based trademark, and so does Mia by Tanishq. Make sure to check for the branding to guarantee the fact that your jewellery originates from the claimed creator. Oftentimes, fake jewellery sellers manage to produce jewellery with fake trademarks. They might look legit from a distance, but you will be able to tell the difference with a closer glance. Make sure to stay on our official website when you make your purchase with us. Do not switch over to any other website, as they might be a knock-off brand. Taking a look at the text styles, formats, as well as spellings shall guarantee that the trademark of the jewellery is real. 3. Learn about the Cost Per Gram Since you’ve chosen us, you’ve already taken the genuine route to style evolution, as we follow all government rules! Check the current gold price per gram before checking out the prices across our catalogues. This will give you an informed idea about why our gold pieces are priced as they are tagged. You may cross-check multiple websites to know the exact price of gold. Even though the value may vary a bit, the difference will be more or less negligible. 4. Check the Weight Checking the weight of the gold jewellery item is important as it affects its cost and durability. Gold jewellery is typically measured in grams; a piece that is higher in weight and value will be more expensive. Gold pieces which are high-quality and heavier shall withstand the brunt of everyday use and thus are considered to be more durable. Be sure of the fact that you're paying for the value of gold calculated based on the weight of the jewellery, minus the weight of the studded diamonds/other gemstones. The weight and cost of diamonds/gemstones are to be added separately. 5. Check for Purity Check the purity details of your gold jewellery pick. The recommended method for this is to look for the hallmark on the gold item again. The hallmark defines the purity of the gold item. It also provides clarity on the actual proportion of gold that was used in making the product. The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is the government agency that is responsible for certifying/hallmarking gold jewellery in India. Whenever you opt for yellow gold jewellery, white gold jewellery or rose gold jewellery, check and choose BIS-certified gold. Thus, make informed decisions about gold purchases online and minimise the risk of falling prey to substandard products. This due diligence shall provide a foundational framework for building lifelong trust and confidence in online gold shopping with Mia by Tanishq. 6. Packaging Gold jewellery shall come in carefully designed brand-specific packaging. You can check out how the packaging looks on our website. So, upon receiving your package, you can be confident that you have the right and authentic product. Plus, the jewellery shall not come tangled up or in a dissatisfactory condition.
