What does a matte finish look like?
A high-shine plated surface reflects light in a hard sheet, which is the finish most associated with costume jewellery. Matte scatters that light instead, so the set looks softer and closer to antique or oxidised work, which usually sits better against traditional festive colours.
Is matte harder to keep clean?
It shows fingerprints and skin oils more than a polished surface does, because there is no shine to hide them. Wipe the set with a soft dry cloth after each wear, keep hand cream and perfume off it, and avoid liquid cleaners, which can patch a matte finish.
Is this real gold?
No. Artificial fashion jewellery; not made of solid gold. Gold is one of the three colours listed for this set, alongside red and green. No plating statement, purity figure or metal composition appears anywhere on the product, so only the colours can be described.
What should I wear this with?
Red and green with gold is a traditional festive palette, so it works with a red or green saree, a maroon suit, or a multicoloured skirt for a function. Against a plain outfit the set becomes the only colour in the look, which can be effective.
