Craftmanship - Gem Palace Jaipur : Traditional and Antique Jewellery from Jaipur

The Gem Palace, Jaipur : Traditional and antique jewellery of Jaipur

The Gem Palace is not just a jewellery showroom. It is home to some of the best craftsmen in the country. Here, loose stones and strings of faceted spinels, aquamarines, citrines, amethysts, rubies, emeralds, smoky and lemon topaz, peridots, pink and green tourmalines, sapphires or any other precious stone you desire - can be custom-crafted into a unique piece.

The workshop is littered with piles of cut and polished precious stones from the rich lands of Kenya, Madagascar and Burma. These stones are cut, polished and drilled using traditional methods, improved by master craftsmen over centuries. Barefoot craftsmen sit on pure white cushions and sometimes spend days working on just one stone. Ensuring that once it leaves their hands, it is flawless. And fit to create some awe-inspiring, jaw-dropping jewellery pieces.

These craftsmen have mastered the craft in varied styles. From rich Mughal Kundan style from an era long gone by to modern subtility, they can give a piece the look you desire. Needless to say they are veterans in the art of gold-enamelling, a style Jaipur craftsmen are renowned for.

Hence it is of little surprise that Gem Palace jewellery has found an enviable place at Barneys New York and the New York Metropolitan Museum. Our craftsmen are truly, the masters of the trade.
