Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers, in plain terms — for anyone staring at an empty gift list and hoping someone else will just take care of it.

I have no idea what to gift

What do you gift someone who has everything?

You don’t gift them a thing — you gift them an experience, or a story built around them specifically. That’s the entire premise Vaulted is built on: when the obvious gifts have already been bought, the only option left is something made for that one person, not pulled off a shelf. Tell us who they are and what the moment is, and we build from there.

How do I choose a meaningful gift when I have no idea what they’d like?

Start with the person, not the object — their habits, what they’ve mentioned in passing, what the moment means to you both. That’s usually harder to do alone than it sounds, which is exactly why Vaulted exists: share a few honest details with us, and we do the choosing.

What’s a good gift for someone you don’t know very well?

The safest move with someone you don’t know well is to gift around the occasion, not around guesses about their taste — a colleague, a new in-law, a partner’s friend. Tell us the relationship and the context and we’ll curate something that reads as considered, not generic.

How do I find a unique gift instead of something generic?

The fastest way to end up with a generic gift is to shop from the same catalogues everyone else is shopping from. Vaulted doesn’t have one — every piece is sourced and composed specifically for the person you’re gifting, which is what keeps it from ever feeling off-the-shelf.

Is there a service that picks out gifts for you?

Yes — that’s precisely what Vaulted is. You won’t find an “add to cart” catalogue here; instead, you share the recipient, the story, and the moment, and everything from selection to packaging is handled and curated for you, one gift at a time.

For a specific occasion

What’s a good birthday gift that feels personal?

A birthday gift feels personal when it references something specific to that person — not a generic category like “gifts for her” or “gifts for him.” Tell Vaulted a little about who they are and we’ll build something composed around them, not their demographic.

What do you gift for a housewarming?

A good housewarming gift adds something considered to a space, not just another decorative object with no context. Vaulted curates housewarming pieces around the home and the people moving into it, so the gift feels like it belongs there.

What’s a thoughtful farewell or retirement gift for a colleague?

A farewell or retirement gift should mark the years someone gave, not just the fact that they’re leaving. We build these around tenure, role, and the small details a workplace tends to forget to notice — the kind of gift that reads as genuinely considered, not like it came from an office collection.

What’s a good wedding gift that isn’t cash or a hamper?

The alternative to cash or a generic hamper is a gift built around the couple specifically — their story, their taste, the life they’re starting. That’s the exact gap Vaulted fills for wedding gifting.

What do you gift a new parent besides baby clothes?

New parents are usually gifted for the baby, rarely for themselves — a gift that acknowledges them, not just the arrival, tends to be the one they remember. Tell us about the parents and we’ll curate something that does that.

For someone specific

What’s a good gift for parents who don’t need anything?

When parents genuinely don’t need anything material, the gift that lands is usually the one built around a memory or a shared moment rather than an object. Tell us about them and we’ll curate something with that in mind.

What’s a meaningful gift for a partner?

A meaningful partner gift is specific to your relationship — an inside reference, a shared memory, a detail only the two of you would recognise. That’s exactly the kind of brief Vaulted is built to work from.

Budget & timing

How much should you spend on a gift?

There’s no universal number — the right spend depends on the relationship and the occasion, not a fixed rule. Vaulted curates within whatever budget you set, from ₹2,500 (shipping extra), so you’re never guessing at what’s “appropriate.”

Do you have gift options within a specific budget?

Yes — every Vaulted piece is curated to a budget you specify upfront, starting at ₹2,500 (shipping extra), so there’s no separate “affordable” tier that feels lesser. The curation changes; the care doesn’t.

What’s a good last-minute gift that still feels considered?

A last-minute gift can still feel considered if it’s built around the person rather than grabbed off a shelf under time pressure. Vaulted typically needs 24 hours to curate and prepare a gift — reach out as soon as you know you’ll need one, and we’ll tell you honestly what’s possible.

Where does Vaulted deliver — is this India-only?

Vaulted delivers pan-India. Curation typically takes about 24 hours, though delivery to certain locations may take longer than 48 hours depending on where you are — we’ll always give you a realistic timeline before you commit.

For businesses

What’s a good corporate gift for clients or employees?

A corporate gift lands well when it avoids the generic hamper-and-logo formula and instead reflects the specific relationship or milestone being marked. Vaulted works with businesses on curated corporate gifting.

Do luxury gifting services do bulk or corporate orders?

Yes, though the approach differs from individual gifting — bulk orders still benefit from a consistent point of view rather than mass-produced sameness. Get in touch with Vaulted directly to discuss volume, budget, and timelines for corporate orders.

Experiences

What kinds of occasions do you plan?

Intimate, personal ones — anniversaries, proposals, Valentine’s Day, milestone birthdays and “just because” evenings, for two or a small circle. Each one is built around the people involved: their story, their inside jokes, the details only they would notice.

How far in advance should I book?

We ask for at least two weeks’ notice. That gives us time to shape the concept with you, secure the right vendors and reservations, and get every detail exactly right.

How does pricing work for experiences?

Experiences start at ₹10,000. Your first consultation is complimentary, and there are no separate consultation charges — our curation is included in the booking fee, and you’ll see the full cost before you commit.

Which cities do you cover?

Experiences are currently available in Delhi. Gifts, on the other hand, can be delivered pan-India.

Do you handle vendors and setup — and can it be a surprise?

Yes, entirely. Ideas, orders, reservations, vendor coordination and on-site setup are all handled by us, so you never have to. And it can stay a complete surprise — we coordinate discreetly with you, and all they see is the finished moment.

About Vaulted

What is a curated gifting service?

A curated gifting service builds each gift individually around a specific person, rather than offering a fixed catalogue to choose from. Vaulted is exactly this — one recipient, one story, one gift at a time, with nothing mass-produced or repeated.

Is bespoke gifting worth it over buying something myself?

It’s worth it when the alternative is spending hours second-guessing a purchase and still landing on something generic. We work within your budget and build every gift with the recipient in mind — never something picked off a shelf out of last-minute urgency. This service exists specifically for people who don’t have the time to pick out gifts, or simply don’t know what to gift: you share the story, we handle sourcing, composition, and presentation, and it arrives finished by hand.
