There is another temple in the complex near Parasnath. This is of Sri Chandraprabh Swami, eighth Jain Tirthankar.

This is also very beautiful temple built by Ganeshilal Kapurchand Kharad, another esteemed member of Johari Sath, Kolkata.

Ganeshilal Kapurchand Kharad Johari were mainly in ruby and sapphires business. They were manufacturing and exporting these precious stones from Burma, Shyam, Pylin and Cylon rough. They accumulated wealth out of this business and spent generously to build the temple. The temple is built some years after Rai Badridas built Parasnath glass temple of Sri Sheetal Nath.

Shaping Gemstones

Jaipur is well known as a center of excellence in Cutting and Polishing Precious and Semi Precious Gemstones. Shaping of Gemstones is an integral part of the same.
Jaipur is renowned for its skilled artisans.
Artisans, who shape the Gemstones, shape those from rough Gemstones. They shape Emerald, Ruby, Sapphires, Alexandrite, Tourmaline, Garnet, Amethyst, Citrine, Opal, Tanzanite, Iolite, Blue Topaz and many other stones. They use a small machine embedded with a grinding wheel 'San' (Local Language) to shape it.
Gemstones are shaped in Cuts, Cabochons, Drops, Beads etc. Further those are classified into Oval, Octagon, Marquise, Round, Heart shape and fancy Shapes.
