Description

Safar is a handcrafted statement neckpiece inspired by the richly layered jewellery traditions of western India.

Deep forest-green beadwork forms the body of the piece, punctuated with sculptural golden accents and finished with a braided green cord and statement tassel. At its centre sits an elaborate antique silver-tone pendant, detailed with floral engraving, filigree-like motifs and colourful stone accents.

The result is unapologetically maximal: traditional in its references, contemporary in its attitude.

Designed for the woman who does not simply wear jewellery, but lets it become part of the way she enters a room.

Good to Know

Safar is a deliberately maximal piece. The combination of dense beadwork, antique-finish metalwork, colour and an oversized pendant means it is designed to be the focal point of your look.

The antique silver-tone aesthetic also belongs to a larger Indian folk-jewellery vocabulary in which oxidised or aged-looking metalwork, beads and intricate motifs are frequently used. Jewellery associated with western India, particularly Rajasthan and Kutch/Gujarat, often crosses regional boundaries in both design and craft traditions.

Care: Keep Safar away from water, perfume, sanitiser and other chemicals. Store it separately in a dry, moisture-free place and gently wipe the metal elements with a soft, dry cloth after wearing.

Wear It With

Safar works best when the rest of the outfit gives it room to speak.

For an Indian look:
A plain silk saree, handwoven saree, solid-colour kurta set or minimalist lehenga.

For a contemporary look:
A black dress, crisp white shirt, tailored blazer or monochrome column dress.

For maximum impact:
Keep the neckline relatively clean and let Safar sit at the centre of the look. Add minimal earrings rather than competing statement jewellery.

Colours to pair with:
Ivory, black, chocolate brown, deep burgundy, emerald, muted gold and earthy neutrals.

A Few Questions

Is Safar handcrafted?
Yes. Safar is handcrafted, with detailed beadwork and an ornate statement centrepiece.

What makes Safar different?
Its contrast. Deep green beadwork, warm golden accents and an intricate antique silver-tone pendant create a layered look that feels distinctly Indian without looking traditionally styled.

Is the pendant real silver?
We recommend describing it as an antique brass coated real silver metal centrepiece.

Can I wear Safar with western clothing?
Absolutely. In fact, the contrast works particularly well. Pair it with a simple black, white or neutral outfit and let the neckpiece do the work.

Is Safar adjustable?
The braided cord allows the neckpiece to be adjusted for fit.

How should I store it?
Store it separately in a dry place, preferably inside its jewellery pouch or box, away from moisture and direct contact with perfumes or chemicals.
