October recorded growth in export of Color stones and Diamonds

Color stones (Gemstones) and Diamond export of India has recorded growth in the month of October instead of down fall in export of Jewelry in the same period. Rising of Gold price affected Jewelry export badly.
This is an achievement by Jaipur Gemstone dealers (Jaipur contributes most in Indian exports of Color stones and some in Diamonds) in this period of global slow down.

India exports mainly to America and America is facing severe economic crisis.

Gems and Jewelry in Shaharwali society

It is believed that Jagat Seth had best quality emeralds in their possession. There is a dialect about how did he acquire emeralds. It is told that merchant envoy of Jagat Seth was in a voyage and sold all his merchandise. While returning the captain felt that the ship is too light and could not face a storm. They put boulders of stones in the ship to make it heavy.

When back to the home they found those boulders emeralds. It is a known fact among the Jewelers that those are the best emeralds in the world but of Jahangir's cups.

Many other Shaharwali families also had nice collections of Precious Gemstones, diamond, and Kundan Meena Jadau Jewelry. Mursheedabad Meena is supposed to be the best Meena (Enamel) in the world.

Shaharwali society had very good relationship with Johari Sath, the Jewelers community in Kolkata and purchased awesome collections of Gemstones and Jewelry from them.
