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.
Handcrafted from 925 sterling silver and natural rhodochrosite, this necklace features a combination finish, a cable chain, and a spring ring clasp. The necklace is 18.3 inches in length and the pendant measures 1.2 inches in length by 0.8 inches in width.
