What is the difference between price-by-weight gold and fixed-price gold?
Price-by-weight Gold: Calculated based on daily market gold price + labour charge + commission. Price fluctuates with international gold rates, offering high value retention – ideal for investment or heirlooms. Typically traditional pure gold jewellery.
Fixed-Price Gold: Sold at a fixed price regardless of gold market fluctuations, primarily reflecting design and craftsmanship costs. Features fashionable, contemporary styles – perfect for daily wear or gifting, but with relatively lower value retention.

How is price-by-weight gold calculated?
The formula for price-by-weight gold jewellery is:
"Gold Weight × Current Gold Price + Labour Charge + Commission."
Gold weight and daily gold price determine the base value of the gold.
Labor fee varies depending on the complexity of the design and processing.
Commission is typically 2% of the base gold value.

Can I shower with a gold necklace on?
We recommend removing it. Gold itself is water-resistant, but soaps and shampoos can leave a residue that dulls its shine. Sulfur in hot springs may also cause subtle surface changes. To keep your jewellery in optimal condition, remove it before showering.
Tip: We also suggest removing gold jewellery during exercise, hot springs, or swimming to prevent accidental knocks and exposure to chemicals.
