The Meaning of Merai - Precision Crafted Jadau Fine Jewellery
Merai is a name born from symbolism. It blends Meru-the mythical golden mountain at the center of the universe - with Rai, meaning a ray of light. In ancient lore, Mount Meru is imagined as a peak of gold, radiating divine brilliance. Merai draws from this imagery.
Through our specialized cutting and etching technique, we sculpt micro ridges on gold - forming golden peaks that mirror Mount Meru’s legendary form. As light hits these surfaces, it breaks into radiant rays, creating an illusion of high shine. Just like Meru reflects cosmic light.
Merai transforms gold into radiance.

Explore the Evolution
Traditional Jadau Craftsmanship
Uses the traditional Indian technique of Kundan (24kt gold foil) to create intricate ridges and settings, making the process gold heavy and labour intensive.
The Merai Evolution: A New Age of Polki
Utilises laser cutting, etching, and advanced techniques to achieve the perfect shine finish. Delivers the same visual richness as Jadau with far greater precision and controlled gold weights.
Traditional Jadau Motifs
Each motif or ghat which make up the structural detail of the piece are crafted by hand resulting in variable gold weights and thickness. This process is lacks uniformity leading to differences in finish.
The Merai Effect: Precision Through Technology
Incorporates CAD and 3D printing to create highly precise motifs and moulds. Ensures consistency, efficiency, and optimised use of gold without compromising on beauty.
