Since 1985
Naveen Jewellers is a family showroom on the main road through Gonda. The trade around it changed twice: to lighter settings, then to imported stones. The bench stayed.

“A piece is finished when the back of it is as good as the front.”
The house
One showroom, four decades
The shop opened in 1985 with one counter and a bench at the back. Bridal work came first, polki and kundan frames set by hand, and it is still the work we are judged by.
Everything on this site comes off that bench. The temple line is raised from sheet, not cast. The diamonds are bought loose through a Mumbai sightholder so the stone can be priced against the stone. The silver is the same alloy the gold is weighed beside.
We have deliberately stayed a single shop. There is no second branch to send a repair to, and no warehouse between the tray and the customer.
Bridal sets, made to order
Three to five weeks on the bench. The design sheet is drawn with the family; the polki is chosen from the tray.
