How the daily gold rate sets your price

Weight, rate and making charges: what goes into the number on the tag.

How the daily gold rate sets your price

Gold jewellery isn't priced like most things you buy. Its value moves every day with the market, and a fair jeweller shows you exactly how the final number is built.

Weight × today's rate

The largest part of the price is the gold itself: the piece's weight multiplied by the day's rate for its purity. That's why the same necklace can cost a little more or less from one week to the next.

Making charges

On top of the gold value is the making charge, which covers the design, the craftsmanship and the finishing. Intricate filigree and temple work take far longer than a plain band, and the charge reflects that.

“Every Jayani invoice shows the weight, the rate and the making charge on separate lines.”

Stones are priced separately, and every piece is weighed in front of you at billing.
