“Diwali is a significant period for jewellery purchases. Through our Divine Diwali offer, we aim to provide added value across our collections for our customers. The campaign reflects our continued effort to make the festive shopping experience rewarding while offering a wide selection across all jewellery categories.”

Jithendra Vummidi, Managing Partner, VBJ, added:

“Jewellery often carries meaning beyond the occasion for which it is purchased. It can become part of a family’s celebrations and traditions, passed down and worn across generations. At VBJ, our design approach draws on 126 years of experience, bringing together traditional influences, contemporary preferences and close attention to detail. As customers explore jewellery for Diwali, we remain focused on offering a range of designs and standards of workmanship that reflect our legacy while meeting the needs of today’s buyers.”

As a fifth-generation family-run brand, VBJ takes immense pride in its legacy as the creator of the historic Sengol (sceptre) – a sacred symbol of India’s democratic journey. Rediscovered after 72 years through meticulous research by the VBJ team, the Sengol was reinstated beside the Speaker’s chair in India’s new Parliament building, Sansad Bhavan, by Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi, marking VBJ’s enduring bond with India’s cultural and national heritage. Continuing a legacy of trust and tradition spanning over 126 years, VBJ is now set to unveil its largest jewellery showroom on Coimbatore’s 100 Feet Road.

The Divine Diwali campaign builds on VBJ’s commitment to bringing together its heritage, design expertise and a broad selection of jewellery and silverware for customers during one of the year’s most important festive shopping periods.
