Stop being horrible to the poor chap.

He's obviously out of his depth.

Admittedly the depth he's out of is at the shallow end, *but that's not
really the point.

If he's from, *say, *India (which his name implies) and he has a retail
background there then he'll only have experience of the very
stereotypical jewellery you can buy there...

you can probably buy other jewelry in India too g
(but I think that's not what you were getting at).

I spend a lot of time in India and my experience is that the precious
metal jewellery made for internal consumption is beautifully made but
completely pedestrian and conventional in design.

There are large quantities of more fashionable jewellery (in Western
terms) available but it isn't available in the retail shops.

Even in Bombay (Mumbai), *the most cosmopolitan of India's cities, *you
very rarely see anything made in precious metals that isn't of
traditional design.

I haven't had to work since...
