Opal Collection

Opal Collection is our little shop located at 56 Bhosale Shinde Arcade. We are part of the Shree Saurastra Patel Society on J.M. Road. If you live around here, you know how busy J.M. Road can get, especially in the evenings when everyone is out for a walk or getting some food. The arcade itself has a lot of history and we have been tucked away in here for quite some time now. It is not one of those shiny new malls you see popping up everywhere, but it has a certain character that we like. Our space is filled with things we have collected and organized over the years. It is often a bit cluttered because we are always moving stuff around to make more room. We don't have a big staff, just a couple of us who know where everything is kept. Usually, the day starts with us opening the main gate and checking the mail. The light in the arcade can be a bit dim in the mornings, but once we turn on our lamps, it feels right. We spend a lot of time talking to the regular people who walk by. It is a simple life here. We aren't trying to be the biggest store in Pune or anything like that. We just want to keep the doors open and provide whatever it is people are looking for. It is a bit of a squeeze sometimes, but it works for us.
