Tsara - Introduction
Tsara is a quite popular name among jewellery startups in India as well as among women as a destination jewellery brand with a very luxury look and at the same time inexpensive.
The main reasons behind the growing popularity of semi-precious jewellery are that - it is not expensive; it looks beautiful and elegant just like gold or diamond jewellery and it can be carried anywhere without any tension of it being stolen or lost. Keeping in view the many benefits of semi-precious jewellery, Natasha and Tarun Jagwani, launched Tsara - a destination jewellery brand in 2012.

Tsara - Founders
Tarun Jagwani and Natasha Jagwani are the Founders of Tsara.
Tarun is the third generation of gold and diamond jewellery experts and has experienced the B2B space of manufacturing. He joined the family business after graduation from Gemological Institute of America, Carlsbad. Tarun is a graduate jeweler by profession and has been creating jewellery since 2004 when he set up the factory for the business.
Natasha also belongs to a family with jewellery business and her background helped her to start and survive in this business.
Currently, Tsara has a small team of 4 people. However, Tarun and Natasha collaborate with other people as and when required to grow the business.
Tsara - The Idea and Starting Up
In 2010, after Natasha and Tarun got married, the couple attended a close friend’s wedding in Udaipur. While reaching their hotel room after dancing all night, Natasha realized one of the gold bangles she was wearing, was missing.
They looked everywhere for it, including going back to the venues and trying to trace all their steps, but it was lost. She didn’t enjoy the remaining part of the wedding as this was always at the back of her mind. When she informed Tarun’s mother about it, they had a discussion and the idea of coming up with a line of jewellery which is premium and yet affordable came into being. Natasha started doing this on her own from home and Tarun joined her to help her expand the business in late 2016.

Tsara - Challenges

We kept designing products thinking about buying the jewellery from gold and diamonds perspective. It took us a few collections to find the designing style best suited for the world of destination jewellery.
