Jewellery used to be like that one high-maintenance friend—gorgeous, but couldn’t handle a little rain, sweat, or a spontaneous shower. One wrong move and your favourite piece would lose its shine. But not anymore. Indian brands are giving everyday accessories a glow-up with waterproof, anti-tarnish designs that are made to keep up with your real life.
These pieces are cute and committed—they won’t flake on you after one wear. So if you’re tired of babying your bling, or just want jewellery that stays shiny through all seasons (and situations), keep reading. Your jewellery box is about to get a major upgrade.
Palmonas
Co-founded by actor Shraddha Kapoor, along with Pallavi Mohadikar and Dr Amol Patwari, Palmonas is India’s first demi-fine jewellery label. Think affordable luxury crafted from sterling silver and surgical-grade stainless steel, all plated in 18K gold. The pieces are waterproof, tarnish-resistant, hypoallergenic, and basically built for your daily hustle.
Bloome
Bloome’s 18K gold-plated beauties are made on a stainless steel base, giving them the kind of durability your other accessories could only dream of. Bonus: they use vacuum plating tech for a longer-lasting finish, so you can even take a dip in the pool without stressing about your sparkle.
Inaya Accessories
Founded by NIFT grad and trained jewellery designer Paridhi Dhanuka, Inaya mixes old-school charm with modern elegance. Think vintage-inspired necklaces, sculptural earrings, and delicate rings—all without the luxury price tag. Their recent Mother’s Day drop? A gold-plated love letter to mums everywhere.
Klissaa
This brand offers jewellery that looks good on everyone, from your little cousin to your glam nani. Klissaa’s pieces are made with 316L stainless steel, 18K gold plating, and recycled brass, so they’re waterproof, anti-tarnish, and all about lasting beauty through wear and time.
Rubans
Rubans has quickly made a name for itself in India’s jewellery space with its contemporary design that represents the perfect mix of tradition and modern style. The brand gained international recognition when one of their designs popped up at the Louis Vuitton FW25 show, and they’ve been on every fashion girl’s radar since. Known for its handcrafted pieces, Rubans supports artisans across India to create elegant, accessible jewellery.
