In its 2024 Timeless Brilliance: The Best Jeweller edition, Enterprise Review proudly hails Abhishek Gilara, Managing Director of Rambhajo’s, as a visionary leader who has transformed luxury jewellery. Rambhajo’s, founded in 1921, has been the embodiment of Indian craftsmanship, and under Abhishek’s guidance, this Jaipur-based jeweler has successfully combined heritage and innovation, servicing over 1.15 million customers on five continents. His vision, born of strategic thinking and love of enduring art, has made Rambhajo’s a worldwide leader in Kundan, Meena, Polki, and Jadau jewellery.
Abhishek’s journey at Rambhajo’s began in the complicated designs and profound narratives of his family’s tradition. He is entranced by the power of jewellery to connect history, culture, and individual expression, and understands every piece to be a story, and not an ornament. This attitude extends into his leadership and he creates a team spirit, equating his position to an orchestra conductor uniting different talents. Enabling his team with meaning and ownership, he develops high-performing teams that produce great craftsmanship.
After careful consideration, Enterprise review selected Abhishek due to his distinct kind of leadership that harmonizes data-driven innovation with human-centricity. Using state of the art technology and market intelligence, he maps strategies that follow the trends while promoting sustainable growth. His sharp business mind and ability to solve problems enable him to navigate tricky issues with surgical accuracy, whether in terms of streamlining operations or entry into new markets. Abhishek’s entry of Advit Jewels also epitomizes his entrepreneurial zeal, the Gilara family legacy.
At Rambhajo’s, every piece is a witness to Abhishek’s commitment to customization. The listening begins the design experience – getting in tune with a client’s narrative, aesthetic, and dreams – whether designing bespoke bridal jewellery or picking from the collection. This client-first philosophy and compulsive focus on every detail means that each piece goes to peoples’ hearts – trust and loyalty spread around the world. Artistic involvement of Abhishek with industry trends through international fashion weeks, jewellery displays, and social media keeps Rambhajo up with what is current in consumer tastes, fusing the past with the present.
It is no easy task balancing the legacy of a century-old tradition with the needs of today, but Abhishek achieves it with style. He upholds Rambhajo’s essence—its tradition and values—while accepting change, for instance, revamping IT systems and encouraging public-private partnerships. His open, community-oriented stance wins public trust, and his social causes, such as adopting orphaned children and vocational skill development for deprived communities, attest to his humanitarian leadership.
Abhishek’s international influence extends through his mentoring in the Young Jewellers Organisation of Jaipur and active involvement in the Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council. His 2024 award as Best Jeweller by Enterprise Review and Excellence in Wedding Jewellery award by International Visionaries Summit & Awards in Dubai highlight his influence. Through Abhishek Gilara, Enterprise Review honors a visionary whose innovative and compassionate style instills sustainable development and eternal brilliance in the jewellery sector.
