Revisiting The Untouched Valley With CaratLane...

CaratLane - a Tanishq partnership, India’s first omnichannel jewelry brand was founded in 2008, by Mithun Sacheti and Srinivasa Gopalan, with a simple but courageous objective – to make beautiful jewelry accessible, affordable and forever wearable. All CaratLane collections draw design inspirations from a strong historical legacy and interpret them in a modern theme. 

With the new-age woman as a muse, the design philosophy at CaratLane is to make jewelry which makes the wearer ‘feel’ beautiful, drawing out her compelling individuality, inner confidence, and self-esteem. 

With a strategic investment from Titan Company Limited, CaratLane is now partners with India’s largest retail jeweler, Tanishq. The partnership aims to work towards a common mission – to offer customers beautiful jewelry and a distinctive shopping experience that fits today’s values and lifestyles - enabling CaratLane to grow as India’s 21st-century jewelry brand. 

CaratLane is also known for its signature jewelry-buying experience across all platforms. Along with the website, which is India’s largest online jewelry destination, CaratLane, has over 42 brand stores across the country. The stores bring the seamless jewelry buying experience with a no barrier access to all jewelry, along with Magic Mirrors for #CaratLaneVirtualTryOn

CaratLane also pioneered a unique Try@Home feature for jewelry buyers in the country, where customers can book an appointment, get their desired jewelry delivered at their doorsteps, and try them at their comfort with no-obligations to buy. Further CaratLane also launched a revolutionary virtual try-on app – the Perfect Look App – which enables jewelry buyers to try multiple pieces without, literally, having to putting them on. 

With the launch of their twelfth store at Vikas Marg, situated at one of the most happening shopping destinations in New Delhi, CaratLane brings in a uniquely smart jewelry buying experience. 



Mithun Sacheti, Founder & CEO CaratLane said, while speaking about the launch,

Delhi is one of our key markets as our simplistic yet trendy designs are very well received and loved by the consumers here. This has encouraged us to launch our twelfth store which will help us make modern jewelry even more accessible. Located on East Delhi’s most prominent area Vikas Marg, the Shankar Vihar store will give users easy access to our jewelry including our latest collection ‘Noor-e-Kashmir’ inspired by the mesmerizing colors of the Valley. Like all our other stores, here too we've created a whole new world of precious jewelry - beautifully urbane and edgy designs for everyday wear. 



As is evident, CaratLane stores are different from the typical Indian jewelry stores. They are designed for a truly omnichannel experience. 



For a brand that’s on a mission to democratize access to jewelry, this store launch, the twelfth in New Delhi and forty-second in the country, is another step forward in that direction. 


Should you wish to witness the beauty of the valley rendered by delicate craftsmanship, head to 18, Shankar Vihar, Vikas Marg, Delhi - 92 right away! :)

A Trip Down CaratLane...

What?

The Launch Of #CaratLaneVirtualTryOn, by one of India's leading e-commerce site, CaratLane.

When?

Thursday, August 20.

Where?

The Park Hotel, New Delhi.



Yesterday evening was set to be made more exquisite, thanks to my most preferred e-commerce site to shop for modern pieces of jewelry.

The star of the evening, hogging the limelight, was #CaratLaneVirtualTryOn. The pioneer retailer of precious jewelry and gems in the online space was now ready to venture into the App-savvy world with their CaratLane App.



In conjunction with their core mission to Democratize Jewelry, CaratLane has incorporated cutting-edge facial recognition into their latest offering.

I would have forever been skeptical about buying precious jewelry over the flashy screen had it not been for CaratLane.

Thanks to them for being the first to introduce an array of reliable services in the gems and jewelry market, of the likes of:


  • Try At Home
  • Same Day Delivery 
  • Open Displays In-Store


Being the brainchild of Mithun Sacheti who comes from a similar background of Jaipur Gems, CaratLane has been receptive to the creation of a hassle-free browsing experience.

The annoying fact that jewelry stores are always guarded to the helm, with all exquisite creations being locked up in glass cases has been countered by them with a subtle statement:

"Why can't I browse through jewelry just like I browse through clothes or footwear?" 

"We don't keep our jewelry locked up in glass cases. We keep them in open displays so that you can pick up, try on and play with our jewelry." 

~~~ 

What particularly impresses me is CaratLane's Design Philosophy:

Thoughtful Designs, 
Inspired By Art 

Revitalizing Heritage,  
Innovation At <3 







~~~ 

CaratLane had begun by focussing on two segments when they had started out new. 

Those were: 

  • Solitaires. 
  • Jewelry At Everyday Price Point. 

They are now on the outlook to venture into the Evening Wear segment, by focusing on Contemporary Designs, after having rolled out numerous iconic collections of the likes of Showstoppers, Paisley, Eterna, Nizam, and Fleur. 

Showcased here are the Trellis and soon-to-be-launched Lotus collections, which had been exhibited at the Experience Zone. 



~~~ 

With the realization that opportunities are increasing, lifestyles are changing, and fashion is evolving also comes the hard-hitting fact that a business builds on the foundation of Trust. 

To answer the perpetually engrossing question posed to all e-commerce websites: 

"How does this LOOK on ME?" 

CaratLane has launched #CaratLaneVirtualTryOn to aid customers to discover the perfect piece of jewelry according to their taste and requirements. Taking their service one step ahead, CaratLane has also provided the facility to create and share an entire Look Book of sorts. :) 


The closing of the event was constituted of a rapid-fire QnA which was aced by Mithun, Atul and Guru and an exclusive Blogger's Photo Session. 




In my honest opinion, CaratLane has been able to perfectly gauge the preferences of the Indian woman today, thereby being able to meet the aesthetic need for modern and contemporary pieces of jewelry. 

CaratLane has my vote on #CaratLaneVirtualTryOn. :)
