Mangatrai Pearls & Jewellers

Perhaps the words "India" and "jewelry" are most likely to evoke images of colorful bangles, worn in stacks on women's wrists, or intricately filigreed gold necklaces and earrings, but the country also has a brisk pearl trade, and the place to buy them in Hyderabad is Mangatrai.

This jewelery shop, nearly a century old, is known for its exceptional pearls, which are sourced from Tahiti, Australia, Japan, and other Asian pearl producers. The beads are set and sold in rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, and custom pieces can be ordered as well.

Note that this vendor has several locations.
