Enamelled Anklets

We just designed and created this stunning anklet that you will not find in any jewellery shops.

Made of pure silver and enamel, this is a sure show stopper when worn.

Heartfelt thanks to all - My blog has crossed 1000 views (Can't believe it!)

Hi everyone,

Thank you all so much for viewing my blog and making it reach 1000.

Next to Indian viewership, I have viewers from the U.S. followed by the U.K, Singapore, Malaysia, Germany and France and many more.

To have an audience from all parts of the world makes a very humbling experience.

It encourages me to write more and makes me nervous too.

Each blog I spend a lot of time trying to get primary data for both information and photos.

Do give me your feedback on what areas you need more information etc.

You are welcome to write to me at vigneshkavitha@gmail.com

Once again thank you all so much.

Terracota Jewellery workshops in Chennai

Recently I conducted Terracota jewellery workshops in Chennai. There was a good response. I conducted both in Adyar, Chennai and for the MSME, Govt of India. Lots of networking and ideas. It was a good experience.



The little girl in the above picture is a child artist and acts in Tamil TV soaps. She was so interested to learn. Though we did not have plans to teach children, we accomodated her because of her interest. Her mother is sitting next to her.


This is the picture of the workshop conducted in MSME, Govt of India, Chennai.

Silver for Baby

We believe literally in 'Born with the silver spoon'.

As soon as the baby is born, grandmothers and grandfathers are so excited not to forget the parents.

They all rush to the jewellery shops to buy jewellery in gold and utensils in silver. Most of them they buy all this in advance and keep! Again what everyone buys is according to their financial status.

A small utensil called "Paaladai" is used to feed the baby medicines. A unique shape.

I find fillers less punishable:)

Then a silver bowl with a silver spoon.
Again a hand-raised silver plate. I know what you are thinking. The baby is just born!

But we need a reason to buy silver and gold:)

And a silver glass to drink milk.

Recently I saw a silver feeding bottle!

I visited a silver shop to buy a lamp and I requested the owner to take some pictures of baby items.

He agreed and was so nice to unpack them and he himself took all the photos and sent it thru Whatsapp!

Here are the pictures.





The second one is the "Paaladai" that is used to give medicines to babies.
