Traveling to GOA in itself is already wonderful, adding a trip to a local jeweler will turn it into an unforgettable experience. Manzoor created a stunning ring for me from topaz together with diamond and saffire. It reminds me of the sun and blue skies of GOA every time!

I loved the Kashmir Wood craft work this emporium offers. From a couple of hundred Indian Rupees to a couple of hundred thousand Rupees, everything is available. Such beautiful handicraft chairs, Tea tables, dining tables and side tables. I bought 6 dining chairs, 2 rest chairs, 2 tea tables, and also ordered dining tables, side table and the GRAND king size Bed from Amin, one of the owners. Everything is made of Walnut Wood, which is tougher than teak, lighter and more flexible for carving, and is durable to pass it on to multiple generations.

We have twice purchased a custom made diamond ring from this store. In 2013 whilst on holiday in Goa for the first time, a fellow guest at the hotel in which we were saying recommended the store to us. I had a beautiful brilliant cut solitaire diamond ring with halo made to my specification, which upon returning home we had valued at six times the price paid! I have enjoyed wearing this ring ever since and have had many many comments as to how beautiful it is. On returning to Goa this year, we had no hesitation in contacting the store again, in fact I emailed ahead of our holiday to enquire as to whether they would be able to supply a diamond in the cut of my choice (pear shaped) which could be made into a design of my choice. This time we had a very personalised service. Alex took the trouble to visit our hotel to show a selection of diamonds of varying quality and size. With Alex's guidance, I was able to choose a beautiful diamond, which very cleverly had been cut to appear 25% larger than it's weight in carats. This even fooled the professional jeweller in the UK, with whom I had a valuation for insurance purposes into thinking that the carat size was much larger than it was. Having chosen an amazing diamond, and discussed design of the ring with Alex, who understood the brief perfectly, and sketched the design I had described, he left with the promise to be in touch with updates on progress. We were in Goa for just one week, and in that time, I had regular updates from Alex including photos as to how the making of my ring was progressing. Alex delivered the finished product in person on our final night in Goa! At the same time, he kindly took my other rings and cleaned them professionally so that I felt like I was leaving with Goa with not just one but three sparkly new rings- what great service. I am absolutely over the moon with my new custom made ring. The valuation when I returned home was almost three times the amount paid and quality and clarity of the diamonds were exactly as Alex had described. Service from Alex was exemplary, and I also had the opportunity to meet some of his colleagues in other Jewels of India stores, all of whom were very helpful and pleasant. There was no hard sell, with products of this quality, there is no need. I would thoroughly recommend this store to anyone living or holidaying in Goa who would like to purchase amazing quality diamonds or other items at a price which is great value for money. Thank you Alex and all the teams at Jewels of India!

Mandi meaning ‘market place’ in hindi, taps the export markets and potential of Indian handicrafts, by making the crafted product export worthy, sourced from across India, whilst focusing on the handicraft quality and design, vis a vis subtle preferences unique to individual global market spaces. We retail apparels, accessories, art, furnishings, fabrics and other lifestyle products that are handcrafted and unique. Mandi especially focuses on the handicraft quality and design, with the help of our design intervention team and quality audits, while sourcing a majority of its products under common categories, from little known crafts in India. Rural artisan empowerment is what we ultimately strive for - where the artisan gains an understanding of the global marketplace, and retails independently, at par with the global craft community.
