About Us
We are hereditary gold and precious jewellery designers. It was the kings of Travancore who had, a little over 200 years ago, invited our forefathers from Tirunelvelli and Madurai in Tamil Nadu to design jewellery for the royal household. In due course, they settled in Kerala while bringing with them a distinct ethos and aesthetics in jewellery design. Dr. Suntharam, our founder and a widely respected authority on jewellery, followed his hereditary instincts and began designing and crafting gold and precious-stone jewellery from the age of 15.
Today, one of Southern India’s leading specialty jewellery designers, Punnya, which began its journey in 1985, bases its craft on the sciences of astrology, gemology, and vastu. While we trace our roots to ancient traditions in gold and jewellery making, we bring to our craft a fine blend of the traditional and the modern or contemporary. We believe that the right combination, design, and use of precious stones and jewellery can transform our lives for the better by activating our inner vibrations and connecting us to the immanent forces of the universe.
Step into our brand new showroom in the heart of Kochi at MG Road, Pallimukku, and experience a whole new world of precious stones and jewellery, including diamonds, natural Gem Stones, and natural Navaratnas.
Our Services
Our specialty services begin with helping you choose the right precious stone or diamond based on Astrology and Gemology. We take into consideration your astrological position and astral alignments before we help you choose the precious stone that would be beneficial for you and influence your life positively. Regarded as geoscience and a branch of mineralogy, Gemology deals with natural and artificial gemstone materials.
One of our key specialties lies in our process. In crafting and custom-designing these chosen pieces of precious stones, we abide by the principles of ancient gemology where we do not apply heat or use chemicals in the process. Our time-tested craft is at once traditional and scientific.
Most importantly, your chosen gems will be certified for purity and authenticity by government-authorized gem testing laboratories. Punnya also showcases readily designed jewellery, both traditional and contemporary, in gold, precious stones, and silver.
We also offer Vastu consulting services for our customers. Vastu, a traditional Indian system of architecture based on the fundamental principles of design, layout, measurements, ground preparation, and spatial geometry, helps to integrate architecture with nature, the relative functions of various structural parts, and received wisdom, making use of geometric patterns, symmetry, and directional alignments. How jewellery is stored or kept at our homes for our benefit and prosperity is also best defined by principles of Vastu.
Our Vision
To be the most trusted and authentic authority on gems and precious stones.
Our Mission
To help our patrons take control of their destinies through the art and science of gemology and to help them transform their lives positively.
