We've worn pieces every day for three months in Hyderabad humidity to test this.

No — and we're transparent about that. House of Saya is high-quality imitation jewellery: hand-cast solid bronze with a heirloom-grade antique-gold finish, hand-buffed at our Hyderabad studio.

It's the look and weight of fine jewellery — at a fraction of the price, and without the fear of wearing it every day.
