The B. Sirkar Legacy

Founded in 1884, B. Sirkar is among the oldest jewellery houses of Bengal, built on an enduring commitment to purity, craftsmanship, and trust. Renowned for creating heirloom jewellery meant to be worn, preserved, and passed down, the house pioneered gold hallmarking long before certification became standard practice.

Handpicked by Indira Gandhi as one of India’s earliest exporters of gold jewellery, the brand rose to international prominence. Its legacy was further shaped under Bireswar Sirkar, a celebrated composer whose contributions to Bengali music bridged artistry across disciplines.

Today, under the leadership of Sree Sirkar, a dedicated team of designers and master artisans carries this legacy forward. Together, they unite heritage, culture, and meticulous craftsmanship to create jewellery of enduring excellence and meaning.

The Heirloom Naksha

Naksha is an age-old Bengal technique where gold is shaped by hand into intricate floral and foliate patterns. Historically worn by the women of zamindar households, it was jewellery that signified lineage, refinement, and quiet authority.

Reinterpreted today, the Naksha retains its heirloom soul while embracing contemporary expression. Rooted in heritage yet effortless to wear, these pieces move seamlessly from traditional ensembles to western silhouettes, offering a regal modernity that endures.

The Calcutta Modern

The Calcutta Modern is an expression of a city that has always lived between eras. Rooted in Bengal’s long tradition of handcraft, yet shaped by a contemporary eye, the collection distils classical motifs into forms that feel deliberate, balanced, and unmistakably present.

Floral vocabularies are refined. Surfaces are worked with discipline rather than excess. Each piece carries the warmth of hand-chased gold while embracing clarity of line, proportion, and wearability. Heritage informs the design, but never confines it.

Victoria Guinea Exchange

The Victoria Guinea Collection draws from movement, repetition, and the quiet music of ornament. Inspired by the rhythmic arrangement of small gold elements which each complete on its own, yet stronger together. The collection celebrates balance through continuity.

Referencing historic Guinea coins once prized for their gold and global exchange, these pieces echo a time when ornament carried both material and meaning. Designed as modern heirlooms, they retain historical gravitas while remaining fluid, versatile, and contemporary in spirit.

Bridal Collection

The Bridal Collection is shaped by ceremony and inheritance. Rooted in centuries-old bridal traditions, these pieces draw from rituals where gold marked passage, protection, and promise worn not only as ornament, but as blessing and legacy.

Rich in form and layered in detail, each piece is crafted to hold presence and permanence. These are heirlooms in the truest sense, created to anchor the moment and to be carried forward through generations.

The Jadowa Edit

The Jadowa Edit is inspired by the royal Rajasthani tradition of Jadau, reimagined through the lens of Bengal craftsmanship. Here, the Bengal artisan adds their own ‘Bangaliana’ a softer rhythm, disciplined structure, and refined restraint to a historically opulent form.

Rich in colour and meticulous in detail, stones are set by hand without haste, guided by lineage and mastery. The result is jewellery that feels regal yet rooted, heirloom in spirit, and confidently wearable in the present.

Temple Parampara - Āgama

Temple Parampara - Āgama draws from South India’s sacred jewellery traditions, where gold was shaped by ritual, devotion, and divine order. Inspired by temple iconography and ceremonial adornment, the collection reflects forms once offered to deities and worn in worship.

Sculpted motifs, rhythmic repetition, and deliberate weight define each piece. Guided by Āgama, the jewellery carries sanctity and permanence crafted as heirlooms of faith, presence, and timeless reverence.

At B. Sirkar Johuree, jewellery becomes an act of remembrance. A return to lost techniques, patient hands, and inherited wisdom—reinterpreted for the present, not preserved behind glass. Each piece stands as a living artefact: rooted in lineage, shaped by craft, and designed to endure beyond generations.
