About us
Our Story Founded in 2005 by Ankur and Aditi Daga, Angara is a family-started and family-run D2C fine jewelry e-tailer with generations of expertise in gemstones and jewelry-making. Powering their 400-year legacy with cutting-edge technology, the couple built Angara from the stone, up, making bespoke jewelry truly accessible for the very first time. Angara is vertically-integrated, which means every step in the making of our jewelry is carefully handled by us. We source our gemstones sustainably, cut and polish them ourselves, and then handcraft custom designs around them. Without the middlemen, we deliver premium jewelry at high speed, and with 30 percent more value directly to our customers. Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, Angara ships to more than 65 countries worldwide. Our offices are present in the USA, Thailand, Australia, Canada, the UK, Ireland and India. Building a World of Color We believe the world needs more color in every way. Color brings out the best in everyone, and we’re on a mission to bring more of it to the world through our colored gemstone jewelry. We’re challenging the notion that diamonds are the ultimate symbol of love and luxury, and inviting people to celebrate their precious moments with color. Our powerful ‘Celebrate With Color’ campaign, which is revolutionizing the fine jewelry industry, recently won us a Gold Stevie Award at the American Business Awards 2024. Our commitment to transforming the jewelry shopping experience through innovation and excellence has also earned us many other accolades, including Newsweek’s Best Online Shops’ 5 Year Champion title, the BizRate Circle of Excellence Award for two years in a row, and a place on the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Private Companies in America list. Our ‘Create With Angara’ feature has also been recognized as a ground-breaking innovation, winning us the prestigious Fast Company Most Innovative Companies 2024 Award and the Business Intelligence Group’s BIG Innovation.

Here's a classic example in the jewelry industry of a company turning left when everyone else turns right. Angara Inc. has grown 4X from 2019 to 2023 by leaning into color gemstones. Sure Angara sells diamonds, but 80% of sales come from pearls and color gemstone jewelry.
