The world of jewellery is a realm of artistry and craftsmanship, where each piece should be a testament to creativity and heritage. That's why we are thrilled to announce our collaboration with Chicory Chai—a jewellery design studio that shares our passion for celebrating the art of jewellery making.
Chicory Chai's approach to jewellery is a beautiful fusion of tradition and contemporary sensibilities. With a focus on bespoke design and the conservation of antique jewellery, they bring a rich historical perspective to our curated collection at Jewel Box by Arnav.
What truly sets Chicory Chai apart is their unwavering commitment to the handcrafting process. Over 98% of their jewellery is meticulously crafted by skilled artisans in their studio-workshop. This hands-on approach ensures that each piece is not just a product but a labour of love, carrying the legacy of centuries-old techniques.
Chicory Chai's jewellery celebrates the beauty of imperfection, and this philosophy resonates deeply with us. Instead of concealing raw edges, marks, solders, and dents, they cherish them as unique signatures of the handcrafting process. This approach challenges the conventional norms of beauty and encourages us to embrace authenticity.
At the heart of Chicory Chai's creations are the skilled artisans who specialise in techniques like repoussé, enamelling, and stone cutting. These craftsmen, with their dedication and mastery, are the true custodians of a heritage that spans generations. By collaborating with Chicory Chai, we not only showcase their talent but also contribute to the preservation of this invaluable heritage.
Chicory Chai's jewellery is not just an accessory; it's a living narrative. It begins as a vision on paper, takes shape in the hands of the craftsmen, and continues to evolve with its owner over time. This collaborative approach to jewellery making mirrors our belief that jewellery should be a personal expression of individuality.
In the coming blogs, we will delve deeper into Chicory Chai's remarkable jewellery pieces and the stories behind them. Stay tuned as we celebrate the artistry, craftsmanship, and rich heritage that Chicory Chai brings to Jewel Box by Arnav.
