A port city that knows its stones
Karachi has bought and sold gems for as long as ships have come into its harbour. Ask anyone who wears a ring stone and they will probably mention the jewellers around Saddar and Zainab Market, or the goldsmiths' lanes of the old city. Those shops are a fine place to look and learn. What they often cannot give you is a clear, written weight and a fixed price for each stone, which is what we try to offer online.
We do not have a shop or office in Karachi. Every order is sent to you by courier.
What Karachi buyers tend to ask for
Requests from Karachi lean towards Neelam and Yaqoot for men's rings, with Feroza close behind. Opal is a frequent choice for women's rings and pendants, and pearls are a natural fit for a city that lives beside the sea.
One local tip: Karachi's humid, salty air is kind to hard stones but less kind to soft ones. Keep opal and pearl away from perfume and sweat, and wipe them with a soft dry cloth after wearing.
Delivery to Karachi
We dispatch within one working day by tracked courier. Most parcels across Pakistan arrive in 2 to 5 working days, and large cities like Karachi are often at the quicker end of that range. We cannot promise next-day delivery, but you will have a tracking number to follow the parcel.
- Cash on Delivery only. Pay the rider when the parcel arrives.
- Rs. 400 per order, free on orders of Rs. 15,000 or more.
Please give a full address with a nearby landmark. In a city this size, it saves the rider a lot of time.
Want a second opinion?
Karachi has plenty of gem testing facilities. If you would like a stone checked, take it to a lab of your choice within 7 days of delivery, before it is set. If a lab finds it is not the natural gem we described, we refund in full. Read more on our returns page.
