The Gem Palace

Kasliwal family jewellery house whose Jaipur flagship has stood on MI Road since the mid-nineteenth century, with court-jewellery roots earlier still. The shop is organised for serious looking as much as buying: coloured stones, traditional settings and contemporary pieces under one roof, with additional counters inside properties such as Rambagh Palace. Arrive with time and a clear budget brief; high-pressure tourist shops nearby are not the same experience. Confirm boutique hours on gempalace.com before pairing a visit with palace or fort days.
