The Makers

THE MAKERS

THE ART OF SILVERSMITHING IN INDIA IS DEEPLY ROOTED AND HIGHLY RESPECTED. THIS VOCATION IS PASSED DOWN FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION, OFTEN WITHIN THE SAME FAMILIES FOR CENTURIES. INDIAN SILVERSMITHS, PARTICULARLY IN REGIONS LIKE RAJASTHAN, ARE REGARDED AS THE CUSTODIANS OF A UNIQUE CULTURAL HERITAGE, PRESERVING ANCIENT TECHNIQUES, AGE-OLD SYMBOLS, AND A SIGNATURE THAT IS INTEGRAL TO THE ARTISTIC IDENTITY OF THEIR COMMUNITY.

Our Partnerships

Our story begins with partnerships that truly matter. From the very start, Shankar and Manas have been key allies, joining us for reasons we may never fully define but that we deeply cherish. Life brought us together, guided by the spirit of this land, and we believe it was no coincidence: we form a strong and complementary team.

Their collaboration has been essential to our growth. We prioritize the human aspect of our business; our partners are not just names on a screen, but friends and integral members of our extended family.

In Rajasthan, silversmithing is more than a craft; it is a legacy. Our creations are inseparable from their makers—the guardians of these traditions who contribute significantly to the local economy. Generations have preserved these ancient techniques, and we are proud to work with these artisans who bring our visions to life.

Workshop in Pushkar

In Pushkar, Shankar and his team of three brothers lead our second workshop. The Nath brothers live in the village of Pee, only 16 kilometers from Pushkar. This workspace, filled with natural light, ensures fair wages, security, and support for their families. Their work hours, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., provide valuable flexibility along with holidays, breaks, and bonuses. Shankar has worked with the Nath brothers since their teenage years, and today they are like an extended family, celebrating together the festivities of both clans. These loyal allies produce high-quality work, and their commitment is reflected in every piece they create.

Workshop in Jaipur

In Jaipur, several workshops are led by Manas and his teams, made up largely of intergenerational families. These safe spaces, bathed in natural light, provide fair wages, flexibility, and nurture family bonds that create a fulfilling environment. This dedication is reflected in every piece that comes to life here.

Balancing Tradition and Modernity

For certain designs, we incorporate modern technology to bring our visions to life. Using 3D design allows us to stay true to our aesthetic while enabling larger-scale production and meeting practical needs for specific jewelry pieces. Through advanced modeling software, we can create precise digital prototypes, allowing us to experiment with different shapes, textures, and finishes before production. This approach also allows us to optimize the structure of the pieces to ensure durability and comfort, while reducing material waste. Thus, 3D design enables us to merge innovation with traditional craftsmanship while expanding our product range.

Ethical Impact

The art of silversmithing in India is deeply rooted and highly respected. This vocation is passed down from generation to generation, often within the same families for centuries. Indian silversmiths, particularly in regions like Rajasthan, are regarded as the custodians of a unique cultural heritage, preserving ancient techniques, age-old symbols, and a signature that is integral to the artistic identity of their community.

Mastery of complex artisanal techniques is at the heart of this craft. Artisans work by hand, perfecting their precision through years of dedicated practice. Techniques such as chiseling, granulation, and engraving are performed with meticulous attention to detail, giving each piece an exceptional quality.

At every stage, we prioritize environmentally friendly practices, using recycled or recyclable metals and low-impact processes. Far from industrial production, our approach values authenticity, patience, and a commitment to human values. Each piece is crafted in Rajasthan, India, imported to Canada, and then carefully packaged in minimalistic, eco-friendly packaging at our workshop on the South Shore of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
