About Jewellery Redesign & Restoration
Why I Do This
Jewellery is more than just metal and stones for me. It's about memories, stories, and family. In most homes, there's that one piece tucked away - maybe dadi's (grandma's) old earrings or a set of ginni (gold coins) you just can't melt. I help you bring those pieces back to life, so you can wear your memories, not just store them.
What I Can Do For Your Jewellery
- I take old, sentimental pieces and give them a fresh look, keeping their original soul intact.
- Whether you want a full transformation or just a small tweak, I work with your ideas to make your jewellery wearable again.
- Repurpose & upcycle: Turn ginni into a modern necklace, or a kairi pendant into a choker with carved emeralds.
- Modernise heirlooms: I’ve reimagined chandbalis (moon-shaped earrings) into jhumkis (bell-shaped earrings) with pearls and rubies for a more current vibe.
- Combine or deconstruct: Merge smaller pieces into a statement necklace, or break up a heavy set into lighter, everyday items.
- Minimalist refreshes: Sometimes, just changing the meena (enamel) colour or adding a few pearls and emeralds is enough.
How I Work
- I use artisanal techniques like moti piroi (stringing pearls) and meenakari (enamel work).
- Only high-quality materials - Polki, Basra pearls, carved gemstones.
- Every project is a collaboration. Your story guides the redesign, and together we create something you’ll actually want to wear.
Real Talk
Not every piece can be turned into something bold or trendy. Some designs work better than others, and sometimes a minimal update is all that’s needed. But I’ll always try to keep the essence of your jewellery alive.

My Story
Jai Shri Krishna. You know those old gold pieces tucked away - your dadi’s hasli, maa’s ginnis? I always felt they’re more than just metal. So I started reworking them, turning forgotten jewellery into something you’ll actually wear. And wow, people shared such beautiful stories! Seeing someone’s eyes light up when their old earrings become a choker - that’s why I do this. Even our new designs, like ‘Whispers of the Earth’, are about creating timeless pieces with a soul.
