Dear Readers,

Jewellery has always been more than just adornment—it’s an emotion cast in gold, a memory shaped in metal and sentiment set in stone. As Akshaya Tritiya approaches—a time celebrated for prosperity and auspicious beginnings—we turn the spotlight on women and the pieces they treasure. From cherished gifts to inherited heirlooms, these Hyderabadi ladies share how jewellery is woven into their life’s most precious moments. For many, it’s not just about what they wear, but why they wear it—be it for love, tradition, or the blessings of Goddess Mahalakshmi.Turn to Feature Story for more.
