Understanding Gold: Why Bayan Jewelry Chooses 9KT and 14KT Gold for Everyday Elegance

Bayan Jewelry is dedicated to crafting minimalistic yet luxurious pieces designed for everyday wear.

At Bayan Jewelry, we are committed to ethical and environmentally conscious practices. Our materials are fully traceable to their sources, ensuring that every step of our manufacturing and sourcing process upholds our dedication to protecting the environment and its ecosystems.

• A certificate of authentication from a leading diamond grading lab will be provided, certifying the weight and the clarity of the lab grown diamonds used in the piece of jewelry. 
• All gold products will carry a hallmark, certifying the gold caratage.
• Please note that jewelry pieces without lab-grown diamonds will not be accompanied by certification.

To keep your jewelry shining bright, and to maintain its brilliance and clarity follow these guidelines:

1. Apply skin care products before wearing your diamond jewelry. This prevents any residue from a lotion, sunscreen, perfume or body spray from coming in contact with the jewelry. These products leave a film on the surface of the diamonds, affecting their brilliance and clarity.
2. Avoid wearing your jewelry during physical activities like exercising or swimming. Contact with rough surfaces or excessive force can scratch or chip the diamonds. Exposure to chemicals like chlorine in swimming pools and hot tubs can affect the appearance of the diamonds.
3. Clean your precious diamonds regularly

• To maintain the shine of the diamonds, clean your jewelry after every use by wiping it with a soft cloth to remove any oily residue, sweat or dust that may have accumulated.
• You can clean your diamonds with soap and water twice a month. Place your jewelry in a solution of  warm water and mild soap, and let it soak for a few minutes. Don’t use household cleaning products that have harsh chemicals like bleach, ammonia, chlorine, and acetone to clean as they harm the diamonds. Gently rub the jewelry with a soft brush or cloth to remove the grime, rinse it thoroughly with clean water, and pat dry with a soft cloth.
• Use a jewelry polishing cloth, specifically designed for diamonds and gently rub the diamonds to remove fingerprints and smudges. This helps restore the shine of the diamonds. If you want a thorough cleaning of your jewelry, or your jewelry has intricate settings, it's best to get it done by a professional jeweler who uses specialised equipment and techniques to clean the diamonds safely.

1. Store your diamond jewelry safely

• To protect your piece from dust, moisture and scratches, use the age-old method of wrapping it in a soft cloth and placing it in a fabric-lined jewelry box.
• Keep your diamond jewelry separate from other objects, and even from jewelry made of other material, to avoid scratches on the diamonds. Use a jewelry box with compartments to keep your rings, earrings, bracelets and pendants separately.

Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds that are created in state of the art labs using advanced technology that flawlessly mimics the conditions under the earth where diamonds are found naturally. They are physically, chemically and optically identical to natural diamonds.

Lab diamonds are not fake. Chemically, physically and optically, lab grown diamonds are identical to natural diamonds. They are real diamonds with the same crystal structure, and beautiful sparkle as natural diamonds

There is no way of differentiating a lab grown diamond from a natural diamond by looking at them. Even a trained jeweler cannot tell the difference between a natural diamond and a lab grown one, even when looking at them through a microscope. The only way to differentiate one from the other is by using advanced equipment in a reputed gemological lab.

Gold purity is measured in karats (KT), indicating the ratio of pure gold to other metals in the alloy

• 14KT Gold: Contains 58.3% pure gold and 41.7% other metals like silver, copper, or zinc, making it durable and ideal for everyday wear while retaining a rich golden color.
• 9KT Gold: Contains 37.5% pure gold and 62.5% other metals. It's more affordable, harder, and less prone to scratches but has a paler color compared to higher-karat gold.

Both options balance beauty and strength, with the choice depending on personal preference and budget.

Yes, both 14KT and 9KT are real gold, but they differ in purity.

• 14KT Gold: This is 58.3% pure gold mixed with other metals like silver, copper, or zinc to enhance its strength and durability. It is a popular choice for jewelry because it offers a good balance between gold content, durability, and affordability.
• 9KT Gold: This is 37.5% pure gold, with the rest made up of other metals. It is less expensive and more durable than higher-karat gold but has a paler color due to its lower gold content.

Both are genuine gold and are commonly used in jewelry, but the choice depends on your preference for purity, durability, and cost.
