Chriscal Jewelers

Chriscal Jewelers is located inside Seepz, over in Andheri East. We are in Unit 29 of the SDF-1 building. If you’ve ever been to the SEZ, you know the security is tight and there’s a lot of paperwork just to get inside the gates. It’s a bit of a trek to get through all the checks, but that’s the way it works here. Our workspace is more of a factory setting than a fancy showroom. We have benches, tools, and the sound of machines running most of the day. It gets pretty busy, especially when there are deadlines for shipments. Being in Andheri, the commute can be a bit much with the rain and the traffic, but we make it work. Most of the people working here have been with us for years. We aren't really set up for walk-in customers since it’s an export zone, so we focus on the manufacturing side of things. It’s a lot of manual work, sitting at the bench, filing and polishing. The lighting has to be just right or you miss the details. We eat our lunch together and talk about the weekend. It’s a practical place for people who actually make things with their hands. We don't spend much time on fancy office decor. The focus is on the benches and getting the orders sorted out correctly for the trucks. It's noisy and dusty sometimes but we are used to it by now and it feels normal.
