Our Story

The Nizam of Hyderabad is inextricably linked with the image of astronomical wealth and fabulous Jewels. In the burstling tiny lanes of Charminar & Lad Bazaar, the shopkeepers proudly pull the visitors in to showcase their centuries-old design which are now modernized to fit the taste of the generation. However, Jewelry is one of the few aspirational items in the world that makes the proverb fit to its perfect meaning "Old is Gold".

For years, there have been stories of the eccentric ruler of a Muslim state who counted his diamonds by the Kilogram, his pearls by the acre and his gold bards by the tonne. 

At Deccan Plateau, our aim is the revival of the quinessential Deccani designs of arts & jewels. From the hyderabadi chintak to bidri jugs, from narayanpet sarees to nirmal paintings, you can take a piece of history home.
