The tradition of passing on jewellery from one
generation to another generation conveys the
sanctity of the traditions and the sentiments
attached. With the latest jewellery designs and
light weight jewellery making trends people
either do not have time or patience to value their
antique or traditional jewellery which has been
passed on from generations. They either sell it
for a new piece or it remains in their locker for
ages. Heirloom is a piece of jewellery attached
with history to some, but it will always have
a special meaning for one generation to pass
down to the next. The piece is a reminiscence
of its origin, family memories and also of the
people who might not be with us any longer and
this is why they are usually priceless and should
be cared for and preserved when they can.
iece tells a story
Jewellery should be made from heart is what she
believes in and rooted deeply with Indian traditions
and rich cultural heritage, she permeates the
contemporary and sophisticated design aspects
to the piece. “Every piece that come is challenge
as it is true piece of craftmanship which cannot
be shaken. I must ensure and protect the purity
of the work, value the skill and imagination of the
creator. The effort and the hardships that go into
restoring the piece pave for the appreciations from
the y clients and that satisfaction and contentment
cannot be express in words,” says Ashwini.
