Spice


I wish to work with Maharashtrian jewelry, and give it a new look... I want to use material that is not used to make jewelry. I came up with the idea of using spices (pepper, cloves, etc) instead of the usual beads, stones, metal, etc...

Moodboard-Aajwanthi















I would like to use found or Cheap material- some of the words that come to my mind when I think of the end product are: Youthfull, Minimal cost, Metallic and light colours and easily accessible and producible.

Elegant noise

My theme is based on the words, cluster/busy/noise...but this is taken in a more aesthetic, simple approach. I'm try to define cluster and business as something that can aesthetic and not necessarily ugly/messy.I am also giving a very "hippie" look to it because the jewelry hippies where is usually a cluster of beads, bracelets, etc. However im trying to give a more contemporary look to it. I am also trying to focus on natural colours,forms and materials to make it look more appealing since a lot of modern contemporary design is inspired by nature and i love biomimicry.
