OUR STORY
At Umara, we're more than just another jewellery brand; we're crafting legacies in gold. Our vision is rooted in the essence of longevity and the cultural significance of gold in Indian culture.
"Umara," derived from Punjabi for 'lifetime,' encapsulates our ethos, offering investment pieces that will transcend generations.
Crafted by skilled artisans in India, our solid gold pieces seamlessly blend traditional craftsmanship with contemporary designs to be appreciated eternally.
I launched with a simple mission that will never change: to bring my community solid gold jewellery crafted to last a lifetime. With inclusivity, authenticity, and transparency at the very heart of Umara, we're a fine jewellery brand dedicated to offering our customers quality products and an experience to match.
Get to know our founder, Priya
My inspiration stems from cherished memories of my grandparents, who began giving me gold when I was very young. While for many, gold is considered a luxury, in my culture, it's almost a necessity and a valuable investment.
My grandma was a simple lady, but when she rolled up her sleeves, two stacks of vibrant gold bangles were hiding underneath. When I started searching for investment pieces for myself so I could build a stack equally impressive, I quickly realised that many brands were inflating prices to the point that I couldn't afford them.
I've loved jewellery for as long as I can remember, a love I wanted to share with the world. Following several trips to Punjab, I eventually launched Umara in April 2022 after spending a month in the house my grandfather built working on my debut collection.
We Are Umara, where every piece is a testament to your journey. So, thank you for joining me on mine! Your support means the world to my independent business.
THE UMARA PLEDGE
As I take something out of India, it's only fitting I give something back.
So, the Umara Pledge will see us continuously supporting handpicked charitable causes in India, which I've personally engaged with. With a heartfelt promise, we'll donate £25 from every order to worthy causes, from funding education to providing medical care in remote villages; Umara is dedicated to making a change.
With every purchase, you're making a difference: jewellery that looks good and does good.
Welcome to the collective.
