Sterling Silver Pendant Necklace with Black Onyx from India 'Leaf Rapture' This 'Leaf Rapture' pendant necklace by Independent Artisans is a unique and appealing piece from Indian artisan Rakesh Rana. The necklace features a black onyx gemstone with a leaf pattern carved directly into the gem itself. This design beautifully blends traditional, tribal, and contemporary aesthetics, reflecting Rakesh's dedication and his commitment to creating handcrafted jewelry with timeless beauty.
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 in 925 sterling silver with onyx, this necklace measures 18.3 inches L with a 1 mm W rolo chain. The pendant measures 1.8 inches L x 0.9 inches W x 0.3 inches D and weighs 0.43 oz. It features a combination finish and a spring ring clasp.
