Born and raised in Jaipur, this designer comes from a long line of jewelers whose craft dates back to the time of Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II. Introduced to gemstones through his father, a master craftsman, he began selling stones as a teenager before turning to jewelry design — a path that allowed him to combine inherited knowledge with his own creative vision. Since founding his workshop, he has grown from working with five artisans to leading a team of nearly forty, creating employment and stability for their families while preserving Jaipur’s renowned jewelry traditions. His collections feature gold, sterling silver, and gemstones, balancing timeless Indian artistry with modern trends. Exhibited internationally, including in Paris, his designs continue to evolve through experimentation with new stones and forms. Supported by his wife and business partner, he remains committed to crafting jewelry that reflects Jaipur’s cultural essence and connects with a global audience.
Handcrafted in India, these hook earrings are made of .925 sterling silver and feature faceted black onyx, with a high-polish finish, measuring 0.9 inches L x 0.4 inches W x 0.2 inches D.
