SPARKLE, WHEREVER YOU GO!

Classic, Authentic and Elegant! It’s the jewellery we are talking about. From traditional to western, every piece has its own story. There are simple traditional designs, slightly vintage to the intricate detailing on the luxurious items. It’s mesmerizing how these little ornaments are a way to the woman’s heart, it’s beautiful how these diamonds are a woman’s best friend. We have a few beautiful women talk about their favourite ornament and a special memory associated with it, and what makes their piece unique and extraordinary.

Jewellery for me is very personal and has to have a meaning, it is a feeling second to the skin. Most of my collection is from my mother’s heritage pieces or pieces I have picked up from my places of travel. Silver and antique pieces are my favourites and I am currently wearing silver Chandbalis with red stones by Karishma Jewelry that depicts an old-world charm with a hint of modern touch.

Jewellery is a symbol of art, love and passion for finer things in life, this Diamond Choker drew a lot from my creativity and attention to detail. I worked in tandem with my jeweller on the design and handpicked the 102-carat diamonds. Untiring review and refinement during the making process made the final outcome labour of love, this is a piece I cherish and is appreciated by all.

The thing about beautiful jewellery is, it is not only something that makes you feel more beautiful and confident, but it also adds a bright and startling happy gaze in eyes of the beholder. This tasselled set from MORTANTRA is crafted to celebrate women and remind her and everyone around that she is special. This piece is a beautiful ode to self-love and transcends the boundaries of trend and fashion. Love to wear it. It is embedded with semi-precious stones.

I’m wearing a Kundan necklace and earrings which is a family heirloom handed down to me from my grandmother. It is one of my most favourite pieces of jewellery since it is very versatile and goes with an outfit of any colour. Also, I personally stylize antique Eastern jewellery with Western attire for a striking radical effect.

This piece of jewellery holds a special place in my heart. It belonged to my mother and was passed down to her by her mother. This represents a bond and a connection that truly make this work of art such a powerful object. Its jade and goldwork are a link to my roots and a showcase of the Burmese work. I marvel at the intricate work that goes into making such a timeless and beautiful necklace. I feel like a part of history due to this jewellery piece and its legacy and story truly make it my favourite piece of jewellery.

My divine love for Nakshi Jewelry comes from the essence of how craftsmen carve & engrave the gold into beatific art-making intricate ornamental work with various Gods, Goddesses and mythological creatures. Adorning Nakshi Jewelry gives you a sense of belonging & it takes you to another era and time. The temple designs used in Nakshi work originate from southern India that has existed from ancient times through the 21st century. The special antique polish forms the soul of the Jewelry making it one of a kind & a prized possession. This heightens the value of the Nakshi Jewelry & makes it unique as it possesses its own style, beauty & ethnicity. Nakshi Jewelry makes a great addition to my personal collection & it is exotic to own regardless of one’s race, gender, age & utility. Even the artisans who make them state that no two pieces turn out alike, which translates to being “Totally unique & Totally you”.

A Satlada haar is a bridal necklace that is made of 7 strings of antique pearls. It is believed to have 465 pearls with additions of precious gems like Emeralds/ Rubies and Almas. The drops set at the bottom of the haar are known as “Awezein” which can either be made in Emeralds or Rubies. The Satlada haar comes from the Nizams and Nawabs of Hyderabad and hence it defines the Hyderabadi Culture. I’ve paired the satlada with Traditional & Rare jhumke called the “Jhapke” where the top part of the earing resembles a half-moon. An Almas and pearl Tika complete the traditional Hyderabadi wedding look.
