Traditional bridal pieces, regional names, and cultural significance
Delhi brides come from every Indian community — Punjabi, Banarasi, Marwari, South Indian, Bengali — so the city's jewellers carry every regional bridal piece. The Mughal-era Old Delhi tradition of Polki and Kundan dominates bridal trousseaus across communities.
Polki Choker
An uncut-diamond choker set in 22K gold with Meenakari enamel on the reverse — the Old Delhi specialty since the Mughal era.
Maatha Patti
A forehead pendant with side chains running into the hair — the Punjabi-Delhi bridal signature.
Kundan Necklace
Layered chains with uncut gemstones in Kundan settings — Delhi's Dariba Kalan is the historic source.
Jhoomar
A side hair ornament hanging from one side of the parting — a Mughal-era piece preserved in Delhi.
Pasa
A Hyderabadi-Nizami head ornament adopted in Delhi — paired with Maatha Patti for opulent bridal looks.
Karanphool
Flower-shaped earrings with hanging jhumka drops — Mughal-era design preserved in Old Delhi jewellers.
How to Choose a Trustworthy Jeweller in Karol Bagh
Three checks before walking into any showroom
Verify BIS Hallmark Licence
Every legitimate jeweller in Karol Bagh selling gold must hold an active BIS hallmarking licence (BIS-HUID). Confirm before purchase:
- →Ask for the BIS licence number — should match the bill
- →Look for the BIS triangle logo + HUID on every piece
- →Cross-check on the BIS Care app — fake licences will fail validation
Compare Making Charges
Making charges are the biggest hidden variable. Across Delhi, expect 10–16% — a 5% gap on a ₹50,000 piece is ₹2,500. Get quotes from at least 3 jewellers and ask:
- →Is making charge a fixed % or per-gram rate?
- →Different rate for handcrafted vs machine-made?
- →Any wastage charge added on top? (deal-breaker if yes)
- →Are stones billed by weight or per-piece?
Check Buy-Back & Exchange Policy
Most gold purchases will eventually be exchanged or sold back. Karol Bagh jewellers vary widely on terms — read the fine print before buying:
- →Buy-back rate: today's gold rate, or yesterday's?
- →Wastage deduction on buy-back? (usually 2–8%)
- →Exchange terms — full value of old gold, or partial?
- →Is the policy in writing on your bill or just verbal?
Verbal commitments aren't legally binding — insist on written terms.
