A charismatic and inspirational presence in the showroom for decades
Ever since its foundation, Bapalal's focus has been on perfection. In 1910, the founder, Bapalal Mehta entered the diamond business at the age of fourteen. Since then, there has been no looking back. Bapalal rapidly established a reputation for absolute reliability and exquisite craftsmanship. Today, Bapalal is a part of the family tradition in most South Indian homes. It is a name that has won the trust of over 4 generations of discerning jewellery lovers.
The Bapalal's trace their roots to Bapalal Mehta, whose brilliance was matched only by the diamonds he perfected. His only son, Suresh Bapalal Mehta, inherited his mastery and integrity of the highest degree and soon became a legend in his own right, at Bapalal & Co. Jewellers, situated at 37, Cathedral Road. There are no other branches.
Today, Suresh Bapalal's only daughter, Sheetal Bhat, a qualified Gemologist, heads the family business. With three generations of experience, of over hundred and five years, Bapalal & Co. Jewellers has established itself as the leading expert in fine diamonds, quality gold jewellery and precious gems and remains the premier jewellery showroom in South India.
Twenty years ago, Ms. Sheetal Bhat, Suresh Bapalals only daughter, was indoctrinated into the family business of fine diamonds. She learnt her first lessons from her father. She went on to study in Belgium and graduated after a 2 year course, in Diamond Grading and Assortment. Her diamond grading course taught her the skills, but Sheetal learnt the nuances of the business by observing her father over the years.
She joined her father who had relocated Bapalal & Co. Jewellers to the heart of the city, on Cathedral road. With so many new jewellery stores jostling for space in the city, Bapalal & Co. Jewellers stands tall and strong, With many years of honest service behind them and with a future, as bright and glittering as their diamonds.
Ms. Sheetal BhatAs I look at the business over the years since our inception in 1910, I am extremely proud of what we have achieved, and even more excited about our outlook for an equally promising future. Our reputation is built on long-term service, not short-term promises. For over 105 years, we at Bapalal, have always given the highest quality diamonds known to man and priced our creations for what they were truly worth. We will continue to deliver the best for the years to come. I thank our fourth generation customers, whose great grandmothers' jewellery was bought from my grandfather, Mr. Bapalal.
