Air Setting: The Answer to a Question That Remained Unanswered for Years

Whenever a bridal customer looked at Polki jewellery, one question always came to mind:

"Why is there wax inside such beautiful jewellery?"

For generations, jewellers had no answer. Wax had become such an integral part of Polki jewellery that it was accepted as a "necessary evil." No one even imagined that it could be removed.

But at a jewellery manufacturing house in Jaipur—Kala Johare—one person kept asking himself this question every single day.

3 years. 30 failed attempts. More than 100 grams of gold wasted. Thousands of discarded ideas.

And then—history was made.

Air Setting™—the world's first jewellery setting technique that makes Polki jewellery completely wax-free without losing its traditional appearance.

What is Air Setting? (Simple Explanation)

Air Setting is a patented jewellery manufacturing technology developed by Kala Johare. With this technique, Polki stones are set in such a way that:

There is no wax inside — zero wax formula

There is no 24KT Kundan — only gold and stone

The weight is dramatically reduced — the same grand look with a much lighter feel

IGI-certified quality is guaranteed

18K gold is used, providing more options and flexibility

In traditional Polki jewellery, wax was used to keep the stones stable and ensure a tight setting. However, this wax also caused several problems:

The jewellery became much heavier.

There was no transparency (customers never knew what was inside).

It became uncomfortable to wear, especially during long wedding ceremonies.

The manufacturing cost increased.
