This 'Aurora Garden' carved labradorite pendant necklace by Independent Artisans is a beautiful and mystical accessory. Designed by Indian artisan Rakesh Rana, this necklace features a cabochon of natural labradorite, a stone believed by ancient Inuit peoples to be the frozen fire of the Aurora Borealis. The stone is carefully carved with intricate leaf motifs and set in a sterling silver bezel. The pendant centers a classic sterling silver rolo chain. This necklace is a stunning blend of nature's beauty and traditional craftsmanship.
Born in Himachal Pradesh in 1979, this artisan’s journey into jewelry began after leaving behind a career in engineering and IT. Drawn to traditional crafts since childhood, he first immersed himself in Kashmiri carpet weaving before relocating to Jaipur, where friends introduced him to the world of silver jewelry. There, he spent years observing and learning from master artisans before establishing his own workshop in 2016. With a team of eight assistants, his wife, and his brother, he creates sterling silver jewelry adorned with precious gemstones, blending tribal, traditional, and contemporary aesthetics. His process combines classic techniques like melting, wirework, and beading with innovative design, always attentive to evolving trends and client tastes. Beyond artistry, his workshop provides stable employment for local artisans, helping families secure education and livelihoods. Each piece is a reflection of dedication, cultural richness, and the timeless beauty of handcrafted jewelry.
