C Krishniah Chetty app for iPhone and iPad

Our story begins in 1869, when Cotha Krishniah Chetty, sensing the opportunities that existed, decided to start a small enterprise in Bangalore. It was indeed foresight on the part of our founder to establish a fine jewellery business in the heart of the then British Cantonment. This jewellery house would compete with the jewellers of London, collaborate with them and learn from their stringent standards.

Expanding on the vision of his father, Cotha Audinarayana Chetty forged alliances with Mappin & Webb of London and became an importer from The Goldsmiths and Silversmiths Company of London, and Rolex of Switzerland who custom-made diamond-set gold wrist watches, with the dial specially imprinted with the name of C. Krishniah Chetty. A component of the original stock is still held by the company to this day.
