When to order for Diwali, Sunday 8 November
The pieces on our website usually take 18 to 20 days to deliver, depending on the design. Counting back 20 days from Diwali, the safe date to order is Monday, 19 October. For Dhanteras on Friday, 6 November, count back to Saturday, 17 October. Book a video consultation or message us with the piece you have in mind, and ask for the ready date of that exact piece before you decide. We will confirm it.
If the 19th has passed, message us before you give up on the date, because delivery depends on the design and we will tell you when the one you have in mind will be ready. Or choose the piece together on Diwali itself and let her wear it when it arrives.
Agree a range, then let her choose
Agree a range, then put the pieces in front of her. A Diwali gift she chose herself is one she wears without thinking, and the three women on this list wear Diwali differently. Your wife may want something for the evening puja and the visits that follow. Your mother will wear hers every day, from morning prayers to a family dinner. Your sister may like to layer. Send each of them this page, or book a viewing and let them try the pieces on.
Diwali gifts for your wife
Diwali is a festival of evenings: the puja, the family, the parties after. These three go from the first lamp to the office the following week. More in lab grown diamond pendants and lab grown diamond earrings.
Mode Axis pendant, from around ₹30,000. A slim open oval of gold with small round diamonds set along its sides, on a fine chain, 0.30 carat in all.
Vanya pear drop earrings, from around ₹42,000. A pear diamond at the lobe and a second pear diamond hanging below it, in gold, 0.55 carat across the pair. Made for the evening.
Noor bar necklace, from around ₹1,19,500. A short curved line of round diamonds along the front of a fine gold chain, 1.30 carat in all. A necklace for the evening that she can also wear to work. More in lab grown diamond necklaces.
Diwali gifts for your mother
Choose for what she already wears: the chain she never takes off, the earrings she puts on each morning, the bangles on her wrist. A diamond version of her own habit is the gift she will use. Studs and pendants need no size. A bangle does, so our bangle size chart shows how to find it without asking. For more, see our diamond gifts for your mother.
Thea Sundrift studs, from around ₹35,000. A round diamond in each ear, held in a ring of fine gold prongs, 0.46 carat across the pair. They need no size and can be worn every day.
Mira oval halo pendant, from around ₹58,000. An oval diamond ringed by small diamonds, on a fine chain, 0.52 carat in all. A pendant she can wear every day. The product page states which chain comes with it.
Sol bangle, from around ₹83,000. A slim gold bangle with a round diamond at its centre, framed by a ring of small diamonds, 0.85 carat in all. She can wear it on its own or among the gold bangles she already has. See more diamond bangles.
Diwali gifts for your sister
A sister's gift can be the most personal one on the list, because you know exactly how she dresses. Choose a piece that layers with what she already owns, or her first pair of diamond studs. Gifts between sisters, and the gift a brother brings for Bhai Dooj a few days after Diwali, follow the same rule: it is something she would pick. See more lab grown diamond bracelets and diamond studs.
Mode Demilune earrings, from around ₹33,000. A slim hoop set with round diamonds in each ear, with a small pear diamond hanging below it, 0.24 carat across the pair.
Mode Modality bracelet, from around ₹55,000. A fine gold chain with round diamonds set at intervals along it, 0.48 carat in all.
Thea Daybloom studs, from around ₹91,000. A round diamond in a plain gold rim in each ear, 1.20 carat across the pair. A pair she will wear for years.
The bracelet and the bangle both need her size. Borrow one she wears and mention it when you message us, so the size can be checked before you order.
Three questions to ask before you pay
A gift is a promise to someone you love, so get the answers in writing. These are the three that matter most at Diwali, with how Nivara answers each.
- When will this exact piece be ready? Ask for the date before you pay. Ours is usually 18 to 20 days, depending on the design, and we confirm it for the piece you choose.
- Can she exchange it? Ask for the terms in writing. At Nivara the exchange is at 100% of the current gold and diamond value. Within 15 days of purchase the full invoice value counts; after that, making charges and taxes are deducted.
- Is it certified, and is the grade the same across the range? Every Nivara diamond is VVS clarity, E colour and ideal cut, with an IGI report, whatever the budget.
Houses answer these questions differently. Our guide to the top lab grown diamond brands in India sets out eight questions to put to any brand, ours included.
What comes with every piece
- One diamond standard, whatever the budget: VVS clarity, E colour, ideal cut.
- IGI certification, and on solitaires the report number laser inscribed on the stone, so the paper and the diamond are one.
- 14k or 18k BIS hallmarked gold.
- A lifetime exchange at 100% of the current gold and diamond value, and a lifetime buyback at 100% gold and 85% diamond value.
- Lifetime polishing, cleaning and prong tightening, for as long as the piece is worn.

Frequently asked questions
When should I order a diamond gift for Diwali 2026?
Diwali is Sunday, 8 November 2026. The pieces on our website usually take 18 to 20 days to deliver, depending on the design, so order by Monday, 19 October. For Dhanteras on Friday, 6 November, order by Saturday, 17 October. Message us with the piece you have in mind and ask for the ready date of that exact piece before you decide.
What is a good Diwali diamond gift under ₹40,000?
A pendant, studs or small earrings. At Nivara the Mode Axis pendant is from around ₹30,000, the Mode Demilune earrings from around ₹33,000 and the Thea Sundrift studs from around ₹35,000, all in 14k gold. Every diamond is VVS clarity, E colour and ideal cut with IGI certification, so a smaller budget changes the size of the diamond, never its quality.
What is a good Diwali gift for my mother?
Something she will wear every day. Look at what she already wears. If she never takes off a chain, give a pendant. If she wears small earrings every day, give studs. If she lives in gold bangles, give a diamond bangle to wear among them. Pendants and studs need no size. For a bangle, borrow one she wears often and measure its inside diameter in millimetres, and our bangle size chart converts it to Indian sizes.
What should I gift my sister for Diwali or Bhai Dooj?
A piece she can wear with what she already owns: small diamond hoops or studs, or a fine bracelet. Bhai Dooj follows Diwali by a few days, so a gift for it can be ordered together with the Diwali one. If you can, send her this page and let her choose, so the gift is a piece she would have picked herself.
Can I exchange a Diwali diamond gift if she wants a different piece?
Yes. Nivara offers a lifetime exchange at 100% of the current gold and diamond value. Within 15 days of purchase the full invoice value counts towards the new piece; after that, making charges and taxes are deducted. Ask for the terms in writing, whichever jeweller you choose.
