D-Jewel Gallery Is Now Live Online

Six years ago, in the middle of the 2020 lockdown, I started selling jewellery through WhatsApp and Facebook Marketplace by the name D-Jewel.

Today, on 18 June 2026, D-Jewel Gallery officially launched its e-store at djewelgallery.com — and I wanted to write this myself, in my own voice, to tell you how we got here.

Why We Started

The idea was simple: you shouldn't need real gold to look and feel like you're wearing something real.

It started with destination weddings, but the truth is, that's just one occasion out of many.

I wanted to create handcrafted fashion jewellery that came as close as possible to fine jewellery — in look, in weight, in finish — whether it's for a wedding, a festive celebration, a day at the office, a party, or just an everyday piece you reach for without a second thought.

Getting the Craft Right

We worked with skilled karigars and tested every base metal we could get our hands on — zinc, copper, various alloys — before landing on brass. It held polish better, could be re-polished when needed, and gave us the closest match to both temple jewellery and contemporary stone-studded designs.

Paired with hand-selected stones and a rich 22KT gold polish, it gave us a demi-fine quality that stood apart from the costume jewellery flooding the market.

From WhatsApp to Two Stores

The response online in 2021 gave us the confidence to go offline. We opened our first store at City Centre One, Salt Lake, Kolkata in 2022, and a second at City Centre Two in 2024. Alongside retail, we built a strong custom-order practice — designing full bridal parties (bride, bridesmaids, mothers) tailored to outfits and colour palettes, plus manufacturing 92.5 silver jewellery for other retailers under their own labels.

Please note: On early July 2026, we have officially close down one store at City Centre Two as we are now focusing on online work.

Why Our Prices Work

We're both the manufacturer and the retailer, so there's no middleman markup. A piece that might sell for ₹20,000 elsewhere is often ₹5,000 with us — same design integrity, same finish.

That's a big reason 70% of our customers come back. We also keep limited-edition pieces that, once sold or custom-made, are never repeated.

What's Live on the Store Today

You can now shop earrings, necklace sets, rings, and festive collections online — including the Timeless Bandhan Rakhi series in 92.5 silver.

We've also expanded beyond bridal and festive wear to cover everyday, office, and party jewellery, so there's something for every occasion, not just the big ones. And for the first time, we've launched a men's collection as well.

Every piece is:

  • Hypoallergenic
  • Brass with 22KT gold polish
  • Handcrafted in India
  • Shipped free across India, delivered worldwide

Launch offer: 10% off with code SHINE10.

We're also taking custom orders online — share your reference images, stone preferences, sizing, or full bridal requirements, and we'll get back to you with feasibility, a quote, and a timeline.

What's Next

This online store isn't the finish line — it's a bigger door for the same promise we started with in 2020: jewellery that feels special without asking you to overspend.

Visit djewelgallery.com to explore the collections, or drop by our stores at City Centre One or City Centre Two if you're in Kolkata.

Store Location: City Centre 1, Kolkata.
