of family and friends cheered as the ribbon was cut by the matriarch of the Bhindi family Taramati Bhindi. The 17,000 sq.ft two-storey showroom is 10,000 sq. ft bigger than its predecessor being transformed into a shopper’s delight. This is in keeping with the Bhindi tradition that breath taking jewelry should be housed in showrooms that are equally glamorous. After a year of comprehensive renovations to expand the store Bhindi now hosts a greater selection of their already impressive collection of fine diamond and gold jewelry, along with an accumulating repertoire of luxury timepieces. The multi-million-dollar showroom was designed by Sat Garg, founder and creative director of Santa Monica based architecture and design firm Akar Studios. Garg designed the previous flagship Bhindi store and is currently overseeing the $300 million Terminal 2 LAX renovation.
The new showroom is designed to complement the exquisite Bhindi collections, as well as cater to their discerning clientele while creating a destination shopping experience in the process. The first floor is dedicated to diamond jewelry and luxury timepieces. The redesigned showroom is home to in-shop boutiques for Rolex, Cartier, Panerai, IWC, Hublot and Tag Heuer, alongside counter collections of Nomos, Tudor and Chanel. In addition to housing over 400 Rolex timepieces, the Rolex shop-in-shop contains two private viewing rooms exclusively for their Rolex customers.
Bhindi also unveiled a brand new, specialty bridal room that displays its signature bridal jewelry collection and hundreds of engagement rings. The bridal room was designed to make the engagement ring and wedding jewelry selection process special, memorable, and personalized for every bride and groom. Bhindi carries in its inventory a selection of .5 carat to 5 carat Gemological Institute of America (GIA) certified diamonds and the diamonds are presented by a GIA graduate gemologist. Bhindi takes pride in educating its customers about diamonds through a highly interactive process in which each potential diamond is examined by the customer under the guidance of the GIA gemologist.
Driven by their commitment to deliver the highest quality product possible, Bhindi selected the Switzerland-based Obrist Interior AG to build the entire Rolex and diamond jewelry showroom. Obrist, founded in 1895, has established itself as one of the finest builders in the world; its resume includes boutiques for Tiffany and Mikimoto. In order to ensure exceptional quality, the entire Rolex and diamond departments were built in Switzerland and transported to California for installation by a team of expert carpenters based in Lucerne, Switzerland. The second floor displays Bhindi’s dazzling and extensive 22k gold and antique collection. The renovation enabled Bhindi to expand the breadth of their already impressive, market- leading selection by 150%. Bhindi Jewelers is extremely proud to announce the addition of two VIP viewing rooms dedicated to its gold clients. The private viewing rooms will allow Bhindi customers to sit, relax and allow the jewelry to be brought to them for a private and customized shopping experience.
The Bhindi brothers Vinod, Jayent and Dhanesh have come a long way and are now established masters in the gold and diamond industry. Speaking with India Journal, Vinod Bhindi said,“We started off in a 700 sq. ft store in the early 1980s and today we have a 17,000 sq. ft showroom. The time and investment poured into this endeavor reflects the Bhindi commitment to quality and attention to detail. Our prime focus is excellence in quality and design. All our jewelry is designed by the family. We are blessed that our next generation has joined us so we can preserve and pass on this tradition.”
The next generation of Bhindis - Sanat, Ronil, Hitesh, Nikhil, Ashwin and Ketan, are all passionate about what they do. All are certified GIA gemologists. As the next generation of jewelers, the team has been thoroughly trained in the traditional ways of jewelry design as well as the manufacturing of unique hand crafted items.
Bhindi now offers over 50,000 items in its collection and has revolutionized the market in ‘Little India’ here by introducing luxury couture collections to a diverse clientele. In the newly-renovated showroom, clients can be assured of an experience that reflects their exquisite jewelry. The sales consultants are highly trained and their insight reflects their experience, enabling a tailored experience for their diverse clientele. The completion of the upgraded showroom marks yet another step towards the company’s goal of maintaining the highest standards of excellence in order to continue being a leading presence in the industry.
