At Viranigems.com, it’s our mission to promote transparency throughout the jewellery purchasing process.

Unlike other e-tailers that mislead customers by showing amplified product images, we want our customers to be absolutely sure of what they would receive, starting from the size of the jewellery to how well it would fit, before ordering their precious diamond jewellery online.

We realized that many of our customers were not able to visualize the exact size of the jewellery from the pictures and videos provided at Viranigems.com alone. Some customers still missed the whole “Touch and Feel” experience of jewellery shopping. Therefore, we introduced our unique “Try on a 3D printed model before you buy” feature.

Using this feature, you can simply request an exact physical 3D printed replica of a Virani jewellery item you love and try it on in the comfort of your home before making an informed purchase.

Requesting a 3D printed model is easy. Simply click on the “Request a 3D Printed Model” right beside the bright red “Add to Cart” button on the product page.

Once you are on the “Request a 3D printed Model” page, you can simply press “Add to Cart” and request your first 3d printed model FOR FREE using the coupon code: Free3D

At Viranigems.com, we aim to enhance the overall jewellery shopping experience by merging art and innovation. Instead of having a multi-million dollar inventory made of diamonds and gold and charging customers for inventory maintenance expenses, we combined 3D printed models with our unique zero inventory-made to order business model to help our customers save up to 20-30% on diamond jewellery compared to traditional retailers.

When you find a particular design you love at Viranigems.com, we have added multiple ways to help you visualize what your beloved Virani jewelry item looks like in real life.

To help you visualize your precious Virani jewellery item, we have provided multiple features. You may view the design you love from multiple angles.

You may even choose a different metal colour from Rose, Yellow or White Gold and view both pictures and 360 degree videos of that particular jewellery item.

To give you a better idea about the exact size and the dimensions of a piece of jewellery, we have added scaled images.

And finally, if you still miss the whole “Touch and Feel” factor before making an informed purchase, you can simply take advanced of our unique “Try on a 3D printed Model Before You Buy” feature from the comfort of your home, and be absolutely sure of what you would get when you place that order of your precious Virani diamond jewellery.

Happy jewellery shopping!

The Virani Journey https://blog.viranigems.com/the-virani-journey/ https://blog.viranigems.com/the-virani-journey/#respond Wed, 25 Jan 2017 11:41:50 +0000 http://blog.viranigems.com/?p=650 ...]]>

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” – Lao Tzu.

Our journey also started with a very small step. We had a very humble beginning with our first exhibition with close family and friends. We had only 40-50 designs

Initially people weren’t too comfortable buying diamond jewellery online, especially from a new brand since the Average Selling Price (ASP), was slightly higher than other products being sold online. We understood that the customers not only wanted the convenience of shopping from home, but they also wanted to be absolutely sure of what they would get when they place that order.

We realised that the more information we provide, the more we educate our customers about their jewellery, the more transparent we become the more comfortable our customers would feel before buying a high value product online. Therefore, we started providing jewellery details online which not only included the number of diamonds or grams of gold being used in a particular piece of jewellery, but also mentioned how much we charged for diamond, gold and making of that jewellery .

The fact that all of our jewellery is made with conflict free diamonds that are also cut and polished in-house, and that every single piece of jewellery we sell is 100% certified by the most respected gemmological labs worldwide such as GIA and IGI, customers started trusting us even as a new brand in the market.

Some of our customers weren’t sure about the exact size of the jewellery from the pictures and scale provided online alone. They missed the whole “touch and feel” experience, so we introduced innovative features such as “Try a 3D printed model before you buy”. Using this feature, customers can order an exact 3D printed replica of their jewellery and try it on in the comfort of their homes before making an informed purchase.

The Virani Love Story https://blog.viranigems.com/the-virani-love-story/ https://blog.viranigems.com/the-virani-love-story/#respond Tue, 24 Jan 2017 12:30:42 +0000 http://blog.viranigems.com/?p=620 ...]]>

Like all good stories, Virani also started when a boy met a girl.

Both of our co-founders, Chirag Virani and Hetal Virani met each other at the age of five when they were in kindergarten. And since then they were in the same school, same class, and even sat on the same row for years. VIRANI was incepted when Chirag proposed to Hetal in front of the beautiful Taj Mahal in 2014.

The Virani Love Story

When Chirag was planning the proposal, he wanted to get the best engagement ring for Hetal. And the process he went through to get that special engagement ring essentially led to the birth of Virani. Being in the diamond business for over 50 years for three generations and having access to a diamond cutting and polishing factory that cuts and polishes over 200,000 diamonds a month, finding the best diamond wasn’t a challenge. But when it came to picking the ring design, Chirag met one of his jeweller friends and learnt the entire step by step process of how to create an engagement ring from scratch starting from 3D CAD design and 360 degree videos, to a 3D printed model and finally the finished ring. And when he got the finished ring, it was exactly how he had imagined and Hetal said yes.

The Virani Love Story

Chirag personally found the entire process fascinating. After they got married in 2015, they came up with an idea of making the whole jewellery buying experience fun, transparent and convenient for EVERYONE whether or not they had access to a diamond cutting factory or a trusted family jeweller they had known for years.

Hetal and Chirag spent almost a year researching in order to identify the gaps in the industry and studied how people were browsing jewellery, how they were buying jewellery though both online or offline channels before launching Viranigems.com in 2016.

At Viranigems.com, it’s our mission to promote transparency throughout the jewellery purchasing process. Your precious diamond jewellery not only comes with a certificate of authenticity from leading gemological institutes, but it is also accompanied by a detailed price breakdown of how much you pay for your conflict-free diamonds, metal as well as the making of your jewellery. Our loyal customers enjoy luxurious shopping experience at Viranigems.com with unique features such as trying on an exact physical 3D printed plastic replica  before buying an actual piece of jewellery,  complete customization  capabilities,  free shipping,  30 day money back guarantee,  lifetime exchange offers and many more.

Virani Jewellery https://blog.viranigems.com/virani-jewellery/ https://blog.viranigems.com/virani-jewellery/#respond Thu, 05 Jan 2017 10:07:40 +0000 http://blog.viranigems.com/?p=599 ...]]>

When you order your precious diamond jewellery either online at Viranigems.com or through one of our offline Virani Galleries, you set in motion a wonderful chain reaction that our passionate designers and skilled craftsmen are early waiting to begin

 

 

Once we receive your order, one of our jewellery consultants personally calls you to welcome you to Virani and to go over your order in case you had any questions about your jewellery. At that point, your order goes through our comprehensive ERP system and a job card of your jewellery is printed, which keeps track of all the details of your jewellery throughout the entire manufacturing process.

 

 

If a custom design request is made, our skilled designers bring your design ideas to life using a 3D CAD modelling software and send you 360 degree videos and photos of your design for your approval. For all of our timeless designs available online at Viranigems.com, a 3D model is first printed to create a rubber mold. Once the hollow rubber mold is created, wax is injected inside the rubber mold.

After removing the soft wax piece from the rubber mold it is carefully reviewed before a wax tree is made. Since all or our designs are offered in rose, white and yellow gold, as well as in 14K or 18K, different wax trees are created for jewellery items with different gold specifications.

The wax tree is then fixed inside a flask which goes for casting. A pure gold tree is casted in the exact shape of the wax tree. Your jewellery is then separated from the tree and it moves on to the next sets of delicate processes which include filing, pre polishing, ultrasonic cleaning, stone setting, final polishing and then finally Rhodium plating.

After passing our multiple quality control checks, your precious jewellery is sent out for certification form one of the most respected gemmological laboratories of the world.

 

Your fully certified jewellery is then packed and shipped using our trusted logistics partners.
