Detailed view of the delicate craftsmanship that goes into the making of pearl jewellery in Hyderabad. Hyderabad, also known as the ‘City of Pearls’, acquired this moniker due to its generous benefaction by the Nizams who ruled the city for about 200 years. The wealthy lifestyles of the Nizams attracted scores of gem traders and jewelers from all over the world, particularly those from the Middle East, who offered pearls to the Nizams at unbelievable rates. Thus, pearls are found in profusion in this city and remain an important aspect of the fashion and culture in Hyderabad to date. Pearls can be found in abundance in the city—from local souks to lavish malls, Hyderabad has it all. Whether you are looking for real pearls or cultured ones, small or large, you will never run out of options
