"I love pure gold jewellery as it suits my skin tone," says dusky beauty Mugdha Godse who's sizzled on many jewellery fashion shows. She tells CS about her love for jewels:

>> Jewellery and me ufffdu00a0 I feel that jewels define a woman. We are emotionally attached to our jewels and they give us both, a sense of security and happiness. I own many jewellery pieces in platinum, gold, silver and diamonds. But my collection of gold jewellery is the largest.

>> Intelligent investment.... Though jewellery is one of the wisest forms of investment, I don't like to treat them as one. I just pray and hope that no one has to really use their jewellery to come out of financial crisis. I love my jewels and would hate selling or mortgaging them.

>> My choice...u00a0 I love traditional Indian jewellery. It is big, beautiful and have a legacy attached to them.

>> The one jewellery piece I would love to inherit from my mom...u00a0 My mom has a collection of pure gold jewellery in typical Maharashtrian designs. I love the Thushi (royal necklace) and the Kolhapuri Saaj. Recently, at my cousin's wedding she let me wear the Saaj for a while. I really wish that she gifts me both the necklaces.

>> Diamondu00a0- girl's best friend.... Though I am passionate about gold jewellery, I love diamonds as well. I feel they're best in their purest form. I would love to be gifted a diamond, but without the obvious question of course! (Laughs)
