Home Jewellers in Ambernath Tanishq alternative

Looking at Tanishq? See an independent too.

Tanishq is a national chain with a large presence in Ambernath, and for certified diamonds or standardised buyback across cities it is a sensible choice. We are the other kind of shop: independent, on Station Road since 1999, with karigars behind the counter.

Where we are genuinely different

Custom work
Bring a photograph, a family piece or just a weight, and we make it. A recent order was a 110-gram solid Cuban bracelet built to a customer's own design with their initials on the lock. This is ordinary work here, not a special request.
Maharashtrian pieces
Thushi, saaj, nath and kolhapuri work, made properly. Regional jewellery is made by regional karigars.
Exchange terms
We do not deduct melting loss, and we do not cut stone, meena or colour out of the net weight. Ask any jeweller you visit the same question.
Free purity testing
On gold bought anywhere, including from a chain, with no obligation to sell.

Questions people actually ask

Is Nakoda Gold cheaper than Tanishq?

We will not quote another jeweller's prices — they set them and they change. What we can tell you is that our estimate is itemised in writing before you decide, so you can compare it line by line against any other quote you have.

What does Nakoda Gold do that a national chain does not?

Custom work from a photograph, traditional Maharashtrian pieces such as thushi, saaj and nath, and exchange with no melting-loss deduction and nothing cut from net weight for stone, meena or colour.

Is the gold the same purity?

Hallmarked gold is hallmarked gold — 916 is 916 wherever you buy it, because the hallmark comes from a BIS-licensed centre rather than from the shop. Ask to see the HUID and verify it yourself in either shop.

Where is Nakoda Gold?

Station Road, Ambernath East, opposite Shibbu Palace Hotel, Maharashtra 421501. Open Tuesday to Sunday, 10:30 am to 8:00 pm.
