Naru Rhodium & Naru Casting

Zaveri Bazar, Mumbai · since 1994

The mesmerising
rhodium touch —
and genuine protection.

Plating, casting and polishing for the jewellery trade. Done at the bench, by hand, on proper machines — and laid at a thickness that is still there in two years, which is the only part of plating a customer can actually judge.

“Jewellery making is hundred percent a human process.”

— Naru Rhodium & Naru Casting, in its own film

Five finishes off one bench

All of them rhodium, none of them the same thing. Tap through for what each is actually for.

The number nobody can see

A proper coat is 0.75 – 1.0 micron. That is the entire argument.

Too thin and the alloy underneath begins showing through within months — a ring goes yellow-grey at the shank first, where the hand wears it.

Too thick and the layer becomes brittle and crazes. More is not better; correct is better.

A flash coat and a proper coat look identical the day the piece is handed over. They stop looking identical about four months later — and by then the jeweller who saved the money is not the one having the conversation with the customer.

What genuine protection means →

Everything that happens here

Plating, casting and polishing under one roof — which matters, because each of the three decides how well the next one goes.

Rhodium

White rhodium plating

The bright mirror finish. What makes white gold actually white.

Rhodium

Ganga-Jamuna two-tone

Yellow and white on one piece, masked and plated by hand.

Rhodium

Pink / rose rhodium

A warm rose tone, on its own or as the second colour in a two-tone.

Rhodium

Black rhodium

Deep gunmetal. Makes a white diamond look considerably whiter.

Rhodium

Antique rhodium

An aged finish that settles into the recesses of temple and traditional work.

Casting

Jewellery rubber casting

Master model to vulcanised mould to wax to metal. One design, any number of pieces.

Polishing

Magnetic polish

Steel pins driven by rotating magnets, into every place a wheel cannot reach.

Polishing

Dhaga polish

Charged thread, drawn through by hand, between links and inside galleries.

The film

Making of Jewellery

Seven minutes on the floor: melting, the assembling of flowers, balls, leaves and wire into a piece, and the polishing that ends it.

It is worth seven minutes because it shows the thing this trade is usually described without: hands. Melting, assembling, joining, polishing — every one of them a person.
