Ahead of the Raksha Bandhan festival, Gujarat's Rajkot based jewellers have launched pure gold and silver rakhis this year. A jeweller, Siddharth Saholiya, informed that the gold rakhis will be made with 22-carat gold. Saholiya said gold and silver rakhis are being demanded from Maharashtra and Delhi too, apart from Rajasthan as people are liking the new concept. While speaking about the prices of rakhis, the Gujarat jeweller said that the silver rakhis cost Rs.150-550 and gold rakhis cost Rs. 6,000-10,000 per piece.

Saholiya said, "We are offering more than 50 designs in silver and 15 designs in gold segments. The weight of the gold rakhis is between 1 gram and 1.5 gram."

The rakhis will be available in beautifully carved wooden boxes that also include dry fruits, chocolates, and other ingredients. The unique bond of a brother and sister will be celebrated on August 22 this year. Traditionally, a sister ties a Rakhi on her brother's wrist, and he is bound to protect her in all respects. After the sister ties Rakhi on her brother's wrist, he returns the love showered upon him by giving her gifts. In return, she offers him sweet treats. Take a look at Raksha Bandhan quotes below.
