New! Ergonomical Engagement Ring mountings


Well starting off this new year on something new to our store and hopefully for a lot of our readers. We introduce ring mountings which are ergonomical and fits snuggly in the palm of your hands when closed as a fist. Most traditional ring designs are round and are comfortable enough but in some designs like for e.g. in a thick gold band style( like the one in poster above) it isn't as comfortable anymore on the side which is enclosed in the palm. This new design sure takes care of that. Take a look at these at our store.

New Year Wishes and Resolutions

Wishing all the blog readers of "Sone Pe Suhaga" a very Happy and Prosperous New Year from the Kathana Team. We know we are a little late as we are well into the new year.

Anyways this is that the time of the year when we make new resolutions personally and professionally. Well we have made one too. Our new year resolution is to introduce more and more International style jewellery for our customers. A case in point is what you see in the poster below. Expect more such introductions through out the year in rings, pendents, necklaces etc. Our aim will be to delight you everytime you visit our store in terms of value for money spent, an exceptional customer service culture and ofcourse jewellery. Here's to the New Year.

Jago Grahak Jago: Family jewellers give more value for money spent.

Bought jewellery from your neighbourhood jeweller then relax as you have invested your money in the right place. An Economic Times (ET) article today compares Branded/Online retailer vis-a-vis family jewellers. The comparision is on similar line as we have talked about in a blogpost 2 years ago ( read it here ).

Briefly the ET article talks about:

  • Family jewellers ( like us ) price jewellery on a daily basis giving consumers the best possible prices, whereas online retailers and branded store use a fixed price concept raking in a margin of 50-100%.
  • Family jewellers give a breakup of all the information like weight, making charges, buy back value whereas online retailers/branded stores arent always either so transparent or take their jewellery back or give ridiculously low value in return.
  • This concept of fixed pricing thus goes against the very reason for buying gold/diamond jewellery if it cannot give you a better return.

Mobilizing gold reserves through Gold Bonanza Offer.

Usual Investment Mode: Consumers are investing in gold coins or bars and putting them in bank lockers or home lockers. With gold prices bound to rise in coming years, it makes for a good investment sense. Take a look at the chart for last 35 years of gold prices.

Gold Bonanza Offer: Instead of putting the gold investment in lockers when you deposit the gold under the gold bonanza offer you get an additional 4% interest on the value deposited. The only criterion being a minimum lock-in period of 1 year. At the end of 1 year a consumer can liquidate the gold at the prevailing rate and And since we launched it almost a year ago we have already mopped Rs.35 lacs worth of gold deposit from customers.

Gold Bonanza offer is uniquely run by Kathana Jewellers only.

Completely inspired by the article below:
Mobilizing Gold reserves for national development.

Grow with Gold: Gold in last 35 years

Gold has grown by leaps and bounds in the last few years right before our eyes, now raring to cross the Rs.20,000 mark. Infact we hear that it may soon cross the Rs.22,000 mark. Good for investment though. Contrast this with just 30 years ago when gold was unbelievably less than Rs. 1000. This chart( present in store) takes you through the remarkable rise in gold prices in the last 35 years.
