The Gift of Gold this Festive Season

Diwali- the favourite festival of many- is almost here, and I must say that I am super surprised to see people bursting with excitement and joy without bursting crackers this time. There are better ways to celebrate this brilliant festival of light that include decorating the house with lights, exchanging gifts, indulging in yummy food and sweets, going for card parties, and probably the best of all- buying gold.

Dhanteras marks the beginning of the five-day long Diwali festival and is extremely popular in North and West India. People pray to Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth, for prosperity in the family on this day. It’s also considered to be an auspicious day for purchasing and worshiping precious metals like Gold.

As a child, I always accompanied my parents for the night-shopping spree. We always bought gold jewellery from our trusted jewellery shop in Delhi and I don’t think I can ever forget my mother’s joyful face when she chose gold or silver bangles and kadas, ring, necklace or earrings. But that was just one part of Dhanteras. I happily helped my parents choose candles, diyas, Kheel-Batasha, idols of Ganesh-Lakshmi, and crackers (I was small and didn’t know the severe impact crackers have on the environment and animals). I just loved the whole experience including shops that stayed open till late in the night, light and decoration all around, a sense of peace amidst the noise, and lots and lots of joy and happiness.

Gifting a gold jewel to your mother, sister, or wife can really make their Deepavali special, and I am sure seeing her/them erupt in happiness will make it special for you too. So seize this perfect opportunity and make this Diwali memorable for your loved ones. If you are oblivious of a good jeweller around you, you could explore options like Hazoorilal Jewelers and choose from their wide selection of gold jewellery. Wishing you a very happy and prosperous Diwali!

A diamond bracelet for my bride-to-be sister

Do you have a sibling? If yes, you would know that the relationship with our brother/sister feels incomplete without those periodic fights. And yet, the bond we share with them is so deep that we don’t know what we do without them. My sister is my constant companion, my confidant, and the one I absolutely love to fight with. So obviously, when she decided to get married, I clearly was the happiest person in the house. I have been waiting for this event for as long as I can remember, but more than that I am glad she is getting married to the guy she loves.

So when the families fixed upon the date of marriage, I was overjoyed. I really wanted to give her something special as her marriage gift. But because the announcement came sooner than I had expected, it didn’t leave me much time to save money as I wanted to gift her something nice before her engagement. I decided I would buy her a simple yet classy diamond bracelet from a reputed jewellery shop in Delhi. I went to various jewellers, saw the designs, got an estimate of how one bracelet would cost me, and then started accumulating money. Apart from saving most of my monthly income from my job, I did some content writing work as a freelancer. Of course, I had to work extra-extra hard for a couple of months but I feel it was totally worth it.

When I finally had the amount in my bank, I went to Hazoorilal Jewellers, from where my sister was buying part of her wedding jewellery and selected a beautiful diamond bracelet under my budget. Choosing a piece wasn’t so much of a problem because I knew what my sister would like. When I actually gifted her the bracelet, she really couldn’t believe it because during the 5 years I had been working for, I had never gifted her anything, even on her birthdays. She loved the bracelet and even wore it in her engagement. Her wedding is just a few weeks away and I am really looking forward to it. It feels great to be the reason for someone else’s smile, so if you want to give a special someone something, don’t think and just go ahead.

Why Bridal Jewelry is Important

They day of the wedding and all the days leading up to it, are some of the best ones in any bride's life. Most of the women and sometimes even men, start to think of how their won wedding day will look, they start to picture every little detail what will look like what, where it will go etc etc.

And parents start to collect jewelry for these weddings since the birth of the child, they want their child or coming daughter-in-law to have nothing to want for. Most of the times, these jewelry pieces are ones that have been in the family for generation, they are not a lot, but their cultural and familial value is unparalleled.

Before the wedding the families usually take these pieces to their trusted family jewellers in Delhi or where they are residing to get them polished or repaired if they are not in the best the conditions. These are the heirloom pieces usually given to the bride from her parents and her in-laws too, passed down from one generation to the next. They might not be the most fashionable pieces but that is not the point, the point is the history behind and to be given this is a huge honor.

But, parents and family members now realise that the bride would also like something more to her taste and perhaps something which is a bit modern. That is why many of them take the bride to-be to select a few pieces of her own from the popular and trusted bridal jewellery shops in Delhi.

The point of the bride purchasing new jewellery is not to hurt anyone, but the cause of it is, that many times the heirloom jewellery is very delicate in nature, thus one cannot wear or use them on a frequent basis. They are usually kept in the locker or someplace safe and only take out for the extremely auspicious occasions. That is why for a more regular wear family members take the bride to-be to buy a few new pieces.

Best Diamond rings in Delhi

I don’t know if diamonds are really the ‘best friend’ of a woman, but gifting a diamond can surely make you her best friend! I am a witness to such an incident where my strained relation with a woman was mended significantly due to a diamond! No, in case you are thinking it’s my wife, you are wrong. It’s her mother, my mother-in-law! 

A typical Indian family still finds ‘Love marriage’ a taboo. So was my case. I wanted to marry her daughter but I was not entertained right from the beginning. Initially it was both my wife’s parents but eventually my wife being the only daughter managed to convince her dad about me. But NOT her mom. I was gradually getting into the mode of a Bollywood hero to impress her mom but she seemed to remain indifferent to all my efforts. Even her husband couldn’t talk her into this marriage.

Somehow, after withstanding a lot of opposition we got married. My mother-in-law had to give in to her adamant daughter’s wish and my persistence. Unfortunately, she never accepted me as a part of her family. I can clearly recollect many incidents where she would barely speak to me. This kept my wife immensely upset as her relation with her mother was straining too. I couldn’t think of any way to put an end to this trauma. Most of our family members had also given up by that time.

It was only when my wife mentioned about her mother’s birthday did I come up with an idea. I planned a surprise birthday party for her in a plush banquet, invited her friends and all our relatives. I knew what I had to gift her. My wife suggested of Hazoorilal when I approached her with the idea of presenting her mother a diamond ring.

And thanks to her, I found it the best and the most convenient place to purchase marvelous diamond rings for women in Delhi. I pulled out the best one in the hope my ‘always unimpressed’ mother-in law would like it. She did have an amazing birthday, and probably by seeing me put in so much of effort to make her day special she became a bit soft towards me, but the moment I handed her over the ring I got her, she was speechless. That day, I can say marked the beginning of our ice breaking. Today, she is more like a friend to me, and now she regrets keeping me away from her for so long. I would always thank that beautiful piece of diamond to help begin the wonderful bond that I share with her now!

The best wedding gift!

That’s what happens when you’re friends with both the bride and the groom- you are being pulled by both of them in a way that is worse than tug of war. I was the happiest being on planet earth when I learned two of my best friends are getting married. My euphoria became a nightmare when their wedding date began to near. Both the to-be bride and groom needed me on various occasions and both fought about whom I should attend first! The tension reached its limits when both of them wanted me to accompany them for shopping; I like a patient mother, scheduled my meeting with both of them!

I had fixed up a shopping schedule with the lady first because she obviously had a lot of things on her list. We paid visit to all the bridal jewellery shops in Delhi she has listed. And with a lot of scrutiny she finalized her wedding jewelleries from all of the shops she had listed! A necklace from one, a ring from another, and so on! Her bridal wear was a massive decision and she was dependent on me for that crucial verdict. I lost count of the number of stores we visited to nail her wedding dress. Can’t blame her, she is the bride and she is allowed to freak out and change her mind after every piece she was shown. That was precisely why I was called!

The day after, I had an appointment with the groom for the same purpose. He was utterly confused about everything! He looked for almost all the available options when the jeweler showed him nearly all the rings for men! He has zero knowledge of jewellery and I came to his recue just the way I helped him get an engagement ring. It took him 2 full hours to pin down one ring for himself. Thanks to the patient attendants of Hazoorilal Jewelers who did their best to help him (and me!). The rest of the shopping was easier, as he sort of knew what he wanted and with a little backing from me, he was quite fast!

Although, it was a tough time attending to both of their needs, it was a pleasure to see them both smiling on the D-Day, and no wonder, I give myself full credit for giving them that gift which no one else did!

My best friend’s wedding

Weddings are joyous occasions that bring together family and friends, even if only for a few days. When my best friend was getting married, there was no need for her to verbally express her happiness; her eyes said it all. But apart from the bride and groom, who do you think was also equally excited? The best friends, of course! And while it was my dearest friend who was preparing for her big day, my joy too knew no limits. Accompanying her on her never-ending shopping sprees, dancing on each of her functions, and the sleepless nights when we discussed her new phase of life during those last few days before her wedding, were great memories I know I would remember for the rest of my life (okay, at least until I get married).

The task of shopping was an exacting task. We used to come back home exhausted after a day spent on shopping. But the days when we visited various jewellers in Delhi to find the right kind of jewellery were always the best. I could not stop staring at the amazing diamond solitaires, traditional gold jewellery, and platinum jewels. And since the friends of the bride too have the right to look beautiful on the various functions, I always ended up buying things for myself as well.

Let me now talk about the wedding day. My best friend was the most beautiful bride I had ever seen in real life. With the pink and golden lehenga perfectly complementing her fair complexion, and the ethereal gold jewellery from the best jewellery shop in Delhi, she looked absolutely stunning. And did I tell you that the groom just could not stop smiling? The perfect couple had a perfect wedding and while clothes and jewellery do not matter where there is true love, those did in reality contribute in making the wedding day truly memorable.

Dos and Don’ts at an Indian Wedding!

So, everybody knows that Delhi is synonymous with weddings, don’t you? At least I do! And then not the simple plain Jane weddings but the huge big fat Indian weddings you have ever seen out there. Come November and you see a slew of people dressed in ornate clothes dancing their way to glory on the streets like no one’s watching and blocking the already narrow roads, while the quintessential marriage band goes on with the irritating blaring noise which so far I seem to know by heart! Anyways, another speciality of such weddings is that yes no doubt the bride will be gleaming with that jewellery from that posh and famous bridal jewellery shops in Delhi, but the guests are no less, and you see them aunties in bright sparkling saris and backless blouses, their faces lighting white (too much foundation maybe) with their jhatkas and matkas and not to forget their open match making. But then Indian weddings are just so much fun and engaging, I would choose to go to a wedding instead of the club any day, because weddings can be really interesting too!! But yes, on your way to attend one soon? Read along a little dos and don’ts before you set out:

•Dress Code/ Colour code:

Completely completely avoid wearing white and black if you are going to a traditional Hindu wedding because Hindus associate white with death and black with mourning. Also, be modest when dressing up and avoid too much skin show because in weddings like Sikh and Jain weddings which take place in temples, you might be breaching the conduct of the holy place.

•Jewellery:

Please understand that the bride and groom deserve to be the stars on their wedding, so please give them that honour! Yes, I know they have those huge diamond rings for men in the market, but you really don’t need that to shine right? And for the ones who think weddings is the type to flirt with girls and be the cool dude, trust me for I am a girl, too much

Want to own a diamond? Then know the diamond!

Owning a diamond, is not knowing a diamond, and since it’s diamond, it is better you don’t just own it, it know about that piece or chunk you so lovingly like to flaunt. My friend is in dire need of a diamond ring. The reason is predictable; he is proposing his lady love soon! He doesn’t know many shops of jewellery in Delhi, nor is he well versed with diamonds. As a good old friend, I considered it as my duty to tell him about the 4 Cs of diamond. The ‘Four Cs’ are: cut, colour, clarity and carat. All of which must be considered equally while evaluating options before making the final buy.

CUT

The cut of the diamond depends on the way it has been carved, and since it is a process handled by men, it is prone to mistakes. A bad cut can lead to a definite amount of reduced sparkle in the stone. Too deep or too shallow a cut would alter the sheen of the diamond.  Be extremely careful about he cut before making a purchase.

COLOR

The best diamonds are perfect white or rather colorless. The whiteness symbolizes the purity of the stone. So you know how to differentiate between the different shades of diamond.  Diamonds with a distinct colour are usually rare and are hence expensive, who knows, you might just end up getting hold of the Best Diamond Jewellery in India, in your quest to find the perfect ring?

CLARITY

As long as the stone is a graded SI1 or better (best and most expensive is IF, or Internally Flawless), it should be all right. There is not much to fuss about the clarity. Just take a glimpse into the diamond you are about to buy with a magnifying eyeglass and look for small inclusions. They are natural as long as there isn’t too many of them.

CARAT

The weight, and size, of a diamond is measured by carat as we all know. A carat is as much as 0.2gm, or 200mgm. The average size of most engagement-ring diamonds ranges between one carat and half a carat.

BEAUTIFUL! LIKE DIAMONDS IN THE SKY!

So for every girl out there, including me, diamonds and diamond jewellery, be it rings or intricate necklaces or just earrings are her most priced possession! And also her most envious lust! So why exactly is this stone so important or so popular out there? Is it because of it is one of the expensive jewels? (but, so are ruby and emerald) or is it just because someone said Diamonds are a girl’s best friend?

The other day, one of my friend’s sisters got married; I remember helping her with the marriage shopping the month before. I distinctly remember while we shopped for the bridal outfits, the shoes and bangles etc in one day, she had kept one day separately to buy a diamond ring and a diamond necklace, and I thought just why? I mean you have 24 hours in a day, fine you get up late and then you get ready and waste more than half of it, still you would not need so much time to buy one ring! I mean seriously, you just need to pick one and pay for it and leave!! You don’t have to actually go buy the stone, craft it, crave the design and then bring it home! It would just take me maximum half an hour to do the needful, I had thought!

But then we entered Hazoorilal Diamond jewellery  store at South Ex, It took me a while to actually to get over the overwhelming feeling of the beautiful alluring interiors of the store, so shiny, so bright, made brighter by the smiling staff. And lo, if that wasn’t enough, they brought out the jewellery, I gazed through every piece they had on offer, I was actually lusting for it, from the extensive varieties of jewellery, to the service of the staff, It was an absolutely mesmerising experience. You should definitely experience it once. Hazoorilal jeweller’s main address is South Ex and other parts of Delhi too, but mind you this is also the address of the shining stars of the sky, their diamond jewellery is exceptionally beautiful like diamonds in the sky!

The Hope Diamond

It’s been quite a long time since diamond got its due among women of all centuries and generations, by becoming their best friend. Be it intricately crafted diamond solitaire earnings to equally huge diamond necklaces, Diamond jewellery in India has reached high levels of popularity among many. I, myself, absolutely fascinated by the beauty of this gem, decided to research on it a little, and going through the history of diamond mining in the world; I came across articles about the most famous diamond in the world. It is supposedly called the ‘Hope Diamond’ or the ‘Tavernier Blue’, and is in fact notorious for being cursed.

History has it that a French merchant-traveller, Tavernier, obtained this diamond in the 1600s by theft or by purchase and is said to have weighted a huge 115 carat when it was brought to Paris, hence the name “Tavernier Blue’’. It passed on through many famous hands like King Louis XV, before reaching the Smithsonian museum it is displayed at today.

One popular myths surrounding the diamond are that it was perhaps stolen from the forehead of a Hindu deity and hence since then is said to be cursed, bringing ill faith to all those who own it. In fact, Tavernier himself is said to have been ripped open by wild dogs on his travel to Russia after he sold the diamond. This is the first brutal instance of bad luck. While other accounts rubbishes the rumour believing that many others flourished economically when they were owners to this diamond one fine example being that of rich London banker Mr Thomas Hope, from where it got its name.

No matter, if it’s actually cursed or not, but Hope Diamond has sure managed to be the talk of the town, garnering attention even today, where hoards of people come to witness its beauty themselves. This beauty is blue to the naked eye and exhibits red phosphorescence after exposure to ultraviolet light.
