02The studio

How a piece
is made

Four stages, one bench, in Bengaluru. Nothing is outsourced.

  1. Black and white photo of hands drawing a design in a sketchbook, a heavy silver ring on one finger

    Step 01

    Sketch

    Every piece starts on paper, drawn at full size. We redraw it until the line is simple enough to wear every day and strong enough to last.

  2. Molten metal glowing in a small crucible on a workbench

    Step 02

    Cast

    The drawing is carved in wax and cast in sterling silver (92.5). Molten silver fills the mould in seconds, then cools slowly for an even grain.

  3. Hands filing a ring held in a bench vice

    Step 03

    Finish

    Each piece is filed, sanded and polished by hand at the bench. Oxidised pieces are darkened, then rubbed back so the high points shine.

  4. A worn silver surface stamped Sterling and 925 in a small shield

    Step 04

    Hallmark

    Before it leaves the studio, every piece is tested and hallmarked to BIS standards: the BIS mark, the purity grade 925 and its own HUID code.

03Two finishes

Polished
or oxidised

Polished
Bright all over, like a mirror. It shows every curve of the piece.
Oxidised
Dark in the recesses, bright on the high points, so a pattern stands out.
Hoovu cuff in the oxidised finish, darker in the petal pattern
Hoovu cuff in the polished finish
PolishedOxidised
Hoovu cuff. Drag across the photo, or use the arrow keys. Same price in either finish.
