Like Grandfather like Grandsons ... KrippsDiamonds.com. This jewelry store is run by Lekhraj Kirpalani's descendants. Interestingly, it was started the year before the 1976 BKWSU End of the World Prediction.
What drew my attention was the statement, "The Kirplani Family has been in the Jewelry business since 1912".
Now, the story we were told was that Lekhraj Kirpalani came from a poor humble background and started off grain trading. Can anyone fill in the details? Was 1912 when Lekhraj Kirpalani started into business? They seem to make most of their money off wedding sets and matrimonial rings which is probably what Lekhraj Kirpalani did too. Paradoxical given that the all money went to support his celibate gopi princesses later.

Kripps Diamonds or krippsdiamonds.com is our internet division. Our goal behind Kripps Diamonds is to access customers all over the World. The internet and our web-site gives our "future customers" a chance to see what we offer and what we carry in the convenience of their home or office or wherever their computer is. We have a chance to do business with those who don't have the access to our "bricks and mortar" location. We understand the sensitivity of buying diamonds on the net. For our Beta Testing of our web-site and the internet we did a year long test of selling diamonds on EBAY. We were successful in our test and we are building the web-site to cater to customers who want a real good deal and want the product fast. Therefore we have implemented the web-site to offer products and prices that suit those who want to waste no time in searching for that "perfect" deal.
Our Products listed on the web-site come in different metals such as 14K Gold, 18K Gold, Platinum or 14K & 18K White Gold. Please check with us if we have the item available in a different metal. In most cases the jewelry seen on the web-site could be done in a custom grade of gems and or diamonds that you require.
