Many of India's best jewellers are in the pink city
Craftsmanship is exquisite. Honed over several centuries since Jaipur's founding ruler, Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, deliberately invited master jewellers, gemstone cutters, and enamelsmiths from across India to settle in the city in the 1700s.
Here, haute fashion houses are still family-owned and each command mastery of their specialty designs and techniques: 'Jauda' bridal jewellery by embeds unpolished diamonds (polki) without claws or adhesives. 'Meenakari' enamels by veteran jeweller-designer are gorgeous pieces of wearable art. These and more jewellers like Amrapali and Gem Palace are sought by international fashion houses, royalty, and those in the know.
