Strengthening its footprint in South India’s premium jewellery market, Glow by Kirtilals has opened its second showroom in Chennai, reinforcing the brand’s strategy of making contemporary natural diamond jewellery more accessible to younger consumers. Located on LB Road in Adyar, the new outlet represents another milestone in the company’s retail expansion while reflecting changing consumer preferences toward lightweight, everyday luxury jewellery.
The showroom was inaugurated on 29 June in the presence of actress Ramya Pandian, alongside senior representatives from Kirtilals and channel partners, marking the latest addition to the brand’s growing retail network across South India.
Expanding a Contemporary Jewellery Brand
Glow by Kirtilals was created as the modern extension of the long-established Kirtilals jewellery legacy, targeting Gen Z and millennial consumers who increasingly seek versatile diamond jewellery that fits seamlessly into everyday life.
Unlike traditional jewellery collections typically reserved for weddings and festive occasions, the brand focuses on contemporary designs that can be worn at work, social gatherings or casual outings without compromising elegance.
The newly launched Adyar showroom reflects this positioning by showcasing a wide portfolio of natural diamond jewellery designed for everyday wear.
Customers can explore rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets, necklaces and other diamond essentials curated around modern lifestyles, minimalist fashion and practical luxury.
With entry prices beginning at ₹7,000, the collection also aims to make natural diamond ownership more accessible to first-time buyers and young professionals.

Chennai Remains a Strategic Growth Market
The opening underlines Chennai’s importance within Kirtilals’ long-term expansion plans.
The city has long been recognised as one of India’s strongest jewellery markets, supported by a deep cultural appreciation for fine jewellery while simultaneously embracing newer design trends and contemporary fashion.
According to Suraj Shantakumar, Director – Business Strategy at Kirtilals, Chennai continues to be one of the company’s most important markets, with Adyar representing a community that values both craftsmanship and modern design.
He noted that Glow by Kirtilals aims to make natural diamond jewellery increasingly relevant to today’s consumers by creating collections that celebrate individuality while complementing everyday lifestyles.
Rather than positioning diamonds exclusively as luxury purchases reserved for milestone celebrations, the brand is encouraging consumers to incorporate fine jewellery into their daily wardrobes.
A Retail Experience Built Around Modern Consumers
Beyond expanding physical retail presence, the Adyar showroom has been designed to provide an immersive shopping experience that encourages customers to explore collections in a contemporary retail environment.
The showroom combines modern layouts with curated displays that allow visitors to compare styles across multiple categories while receiving personalised assistance during the purchase process.
This approach reflects broader trends within India’s organised jewellery sector, where retailers are increasingly investing in experiential stores that offer greater convenience, transparency and customer engagement.
As younger consumers become a larger share of jewellery buyers, brands are placing greater emphasis on retail formats that feel approachable rather than intimidating.
The new showroom complements the company’s digital platform, allowing customers to browse collections both online and in-store as part of an omnichannel shopping experience.
Launch Offers to Drive Early Customer Engagement
To mark the opening, Glow by Kirtilals has introduced several promotional offers for early customers.
These include:
- Flat 50% off on making charges.
- Flat 26% off on diamond value.
- An additional ₹125 per gram on old gold exchanged towards the purchase of natural diamond jewellery.
Such launch offers are designed to encourage consumers considering an upgrade from traditional gold jewellery to contemporary diamond collections while also attracting first-time buyers.
Building on an 87-Year Legacy
Glow by Kirtilals represents the youthful evolution of the Kirtilals brand, which has been associated with fine jewellery craftsmanship for more than 87 years.
The company combines in-house design, manufacturing and craftsmanship to create natural diamond and gold jewellery tailored to changing consumer tastes.
Today, Glow by Kirtilals operates 11 exclusive showrooms across South India, steadily expanding its retail presence in response to growing demand for modern diamond jewellery.
Its collections emphasise lightweight construction, everyday usability and contemporary styling while maintaining the quality standards associated with the Kirtilals name.
The Shift Towards Everyday Luxury
India’s jewellery industry has witnessed a noticeable transformation over the past decade as younger consumers increasingly prioritise versatility over occasion-based purchases.
Lightweight natural diamond jewellery has emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments within organised retail, driven by rising disposable incomes, changing workplace culture and evolving fashion preferences.
Brands are responding by introducing collections that balance affordability with premium craftsmanship, encouraging customers to view fine jewellery as part of everyday personal style rather than occasional indulgence.
Glow by Kirtilals’ expansion into Adyar reflects this broader industry trend while reinforcing the company’s ambition to strengthen its presence across South India’s key urban markets.
With a growing retail network, accessible pricing and contemporary product design, the brand continues positioning itself at the intersection of heritage craftsmanship and modern consumer aspirations.
