Indian festivals and weddings see a frenzy for grand, traditional jewellery. In addition to gold and precious gems, women now have more options to choose from courtesy a new crop of designers who are experimenting with varied materials and designs.
These artistes challenge stereotypes and redefine minimalism for Indian consumers, crafting dainty, eye-catching pieces. Designs can vary from the moon face, geometric patterns, tribal motifs, traditional weave patterns, musical instruments, among others made in either silver or brass, and sometimes the lesser-seen wood and beads.
