Every price mentioned here is from our own workshop in Amritsar, where we have been handcrafting ceremonial and decorative swords for weddings, pooja, cultural events and photography.
If you have searched for talwar price online, you have probably seen numbers that swing wildly, from a few hundred rupees on a marketplace listing to fifty thousand rupees for a collector piece. That gap confuses most first time buyers, especially when they are shopping for a wedding and have only a few weeks in hand.

Two swords can look almost identical in a photograph and still differ by two thousand rupees. Here is what actually drives the cost.
The hilt is the single biggest price factor. A plain steel or moulded handle keeps the sword in the Rs. 800 to Rs. 1,200 range. Brass hilts, carved wooden grips and hand engraved handles push the price up because each one takes an artisan several hours. Our Sirohi Rajwada Talwar and American Handle Sword sit at the higher end largely because of the hilt work.
A standard ceremonial talwar blade runs between 28 and 34 inches. Longer blades need more material and more careful balancing, which adds to cost. The finish also matters. A mirror polish, an antique oxidised look or a coloured coating each involve different processes and different price points.
Etched motifs, koftgari style inlay, lion head pommels and religious symbols are all hand applied. The more detailed the work, the higher the price. This is where a Rs. 900 sword and a Rs. 2,999 sword genuinely differ, and it shows clearly in wedding photographs.
A basic sheath is functional. A wooden scabbard wrapped in velvet or leather with metal fittings looks far richer on camera and costs more. Our Leather Cover Pooja Talwar is priced for exactly this reason.
Name engraving, custom lengths, matching sets for multiple family members and specific colour themes all add to the final rate. We accept custom orders, and pricing depends on the design you share with us.
The occasion decides everything else.
This is the step most buyers skip. A gold toned brass hilt sits beautifully against a cream or maroon sherwani. Silver and steel finishes work better with pastels, ivory and modern cuts. Send us a photo of the outfit if you are unsure and we will suggest a match.
For a baraat you will be holding the sword for a long stretch. Anything above 1.5 kg starts to feel heavy after twenty minutes. Our wedding range is balanced deliberately so it feels solid in hand without tiring you out.
This is where a good talwar separates itself from an average one. Look at how cleanly the hilt meets the blade, whether the polish runs evenly along the full length, and how snugly the scabbard fits. Our pieces are finished entirely by hand in our Amritsar workshop, and that detailing is exactly why they photograph so beautifully and hold their finish for years. Every Talwar Factory sword is a ceremonial and decorative piece, crafted for weddings, pooja, display and photography, so it is comfortable to carry through a baraat and looks striking on a wall afterwards.
Wedding season demand peaks between November and February, and again around Dussehra for shastra pooja. Custom orders need lead time. Book at least three to four weeks ahead of your date so you are not stuck choosing from whatever is left in stock.
A talwar is a long, awkward item to ship. Ask how it will be packed. We ship across India with protective packaging, and if a piece arrives damaged we replace or repair it free of charge.
You will see the same style listed at Rs. 500 on a marketplace and Rs. 2,500 on a manufacturer site. The difference is usually one of these:
If a price looks too good, ask three questions: is the scabbard included, is it handcrafted, and can you send an actual photo of the item.
A little maintenance keeps a ceremonial sword looking new for years.
A ceremonial talwar in India typically costs between Rs. 800 and Rs. 6,000. Entry level pooja and gifting pieces start around Rs. 800, wedding talwars usually fall between Rs. 1,200 and Rs. 2,500, and premium handcrafted or engraved pieces go up from there.
Our Bhagauti Shakti Talwar is priced at Rs. 800 and is our most affordable handcrafted option, popular for pooja and gifting.
A good quality wedding talwar costs between Rs. 1,200 and Rs. 2,500. Our Wedding Sword starts at Rs. 1,200 and the Sultan Talwar is Rs. 2,199. Sets for multiple family members work out cheaper through our combo offers.
Our Sirohi Talwar is currently Rs. 1,999, reduced from Rs. 3,499. The premium Sirohi Rajwada Talwar with detailed hilt work is Rs. 2,999.
Price depends on handle material, blade length, the amount of hand engraving, scabbard quality and whether the piece is customised. Handcrafted pieces with brass or carved wooden hilts cost more than plain machine finished ones.
We make premium ceremonial and decorative swords, handcrafted in Amritsar for weddings, pooja, cultural events, display and photography. Each blade is finished for ceremonial handling and display rather than built as a functional weapon, which is what makes our pieces safe and comfortable to carry through a baraat and beautiful to keep on show at home.
Yes. We ship to all parts of India with secure protective packaging. Delivery timelines depend on your location and whether the piece is custom made.
Yes. We accept custom orders. Share your design idea, preferred length, handle style and any engraving text, and we will quote you accordingly.
For most weddings, Rs. 1,500 to Rs. 2,500 gives you the best balance of detailing, finish and weight. Below that you compromise on hilt work, and above that you are largely paying for collector level detailing.
Yes. Our Ranchandi Combo 3 Pcs is Rs. 2,199 and the Talwar Combo Offer is Rs. 2,499, both significantly cheaper than buying the pieces separately. For bulk and wholesale enquiries, contact us directly.
Custom pieces generally take longer than ready stock. During wedding season we recommend placing your order three to four weeks in advance.
We replace or repair damaged items free of charge. For other returns, contact us within 7 days of delivery.
