Shri Raj Laxmi Kangan Store

You can find Shri Raj Laxmi Kangan Store at 41 Lakhara Chowk in the Dhanmandi area. As the name suggests, we deal mostly in bangles and small jewelry items that women look for. Lakhara Chowk is a famous place for this kind of thing, and we’ve been part of this market for a good while. The shop is filled with glass bangles, metal ones, and all sorts of colors you can imagine. It’s quite a small room, really, but we’ve got shelves lining every wall. It can get a bit dusty with all the people walking by in the market, so we spend a lot of time cleaning the glass cases. We don't have any big sales pitch. People come in, show us a sample of their dress, and we try to match the bangles to it. Sometimes it takes a while to find the perfect shade. We get our stock from local makers and some from outside the city too. Dhanmandi is always crowded, especially during the festival season, so it gets really hectic here. We just try to keep up with the demand and make sure we have enough sets in every size. It’s a simple life, sitting in the shop and talking to people who come from all over. No fancy decorations, just rows and rows of bangles for everyone. We like being in this part of town despite the heat and the crowds.
