Pricing Policies,Privacy Policies and Terms and conditions
PRICING POLICY At ALMAS we believe that products have to be priced fairly. We aim to be honest and clear about the price you pay for the jewellery you buy. We want to create a relationship with our customers based on trust and do not want pricing to play spoilsport. We price our jewellery primarily on the weight of silver used in the product, rarity of the semi precious stones, and also the level of craftsmanship involved. Jewellery making is an art. In order to be sustainable, art has to be affordable and transperantly priced. We do not believe in paying an extraordinary premium for design. Our manufacturing base allows us to offer you exclusive jewellery at competative rates. Even when we procure jewellery from elsewhere, our policy is to buy directly from the manufacturers.
