Traditionally, studded jewellery with stone embellishments
has been in high demand around the September-October
festival season, which climaxes with the major Hindu
festival Diwali in late October to early November.
The studded jewellery was bought as much as an investment
as to be worn at special occasions. But this season
fashion-conscious young Indian women have increasingly
been selecting diamond-studded jewellery made of gold
with emeralds, ruby and diamonds.
The vast majority of Indian households still put away
a part of their monthly income for
investment in gold and studded jewellery remained the
favorite for special occasions.
For centuries studded jewellery has been equated with
money, savings, riches and status in India, and family
heirlooms alone may account for more than half of the
country's holdings.
