“I prefer traditional clothing through the lens of maximalism or minimalism. The in between leaves me cold.”

THE ESPLANADE NECKLACE

The 1920s in Calcutta. Opinion, discourse and debate raged all along the by lanes of North Calcutta. An age of conflict and passion. Writers, poets, artists, royals and freedom fighters. A time of rebellion. Between dusty Venetian chandeliers and weathered terrazzo floors. Where beauty in words, art, clothing, architecture and jewellery became a true pleasure. A strangely interesting time for jewellery making in Bengal—where European techniques meet Mughal heritage and Bengali filigree craftsmanship.

 With echoes that cross over from the Georgian age to Belle Époque. The Bengal Royale collection is Sabyasachi’s classic ode to an era of iconic thought, craftsmanship and sartorial brilliance

“Bengal’s grand history of handcrafted jewellery almost faded away because of a lack of patronage. I want to bring this legacy back.”

I love nature, and so Hope is a design inspired by nature.

An homage to precious stones, fine craftsmanship and the glamour of Calcutta. The Baghbazar is crafted in gold with 130.24 carats of emeralds, a solitary 26.23 carat yellow sapphire and crowned with old mine and brilliant cut diamonds. The back is intricately crafted in the house’s signature Bengal filigree craftsmanship and studded with EF VVS VS diamonds.

I recently visited the sabyasachi store in new york city, ready to buy me some jewelry. First of all the sales person spoke to me only when she noticed my designer handbag. Next, I really loved a necklace which was around $xxxx but when I asked they said it was not emeralds or rubies but was Apatite and enamel. Was I living under the rock? I couldn't justify spending that much for jewelry that was not even rare-ish stones.
