For as long as I can remember, I have always loved jewellery and I knew it was something I wanted to do. To turn this passion into a reality, I undertook a Diamond Graduate course at the Gemological Institute of America and participated in classes when L'ecole Van Cleef (The school of Van Cleef and Arpels) visited Dubai. These experiences taught me to appreciate jewellery even more and made me want to start an Instagram account where I could share this!
My brand's journey began with a blog on Instagram where I focused more on diamonds. Whereas, when I launched my first collection people were surprised to see it filled with gemstones. A quite unpredictable step; however, the response I received was better than expected. Since I established my collection with an inspiration and concept, it caught a lot of attention.
I love to travel as much as I love jewellery. When I travel, I have the opportunity to explore new worlds, new cultures, new traditions and each country inspires me in a different way.
I was looking for the right retailer that is established enough to be a department store and is loved by regional clients to stock my brand and Robinsons felt like the right fit.
When I first wanted to start my jewellery line, I was lost on where to begin. My initial attempts involved some failed designs and production. However, my aim was to always be different from other brands which is when I decided to merge my two favourite things - travel and jewellery. Once it was clear which direction I wanted to take my brand in, everything fell into place from design to production to the final product.
Yes, they are made in Dubai where I get to keep a close eye on the entire process.
For everyday, I love wearing my small designs and stackable rings alongside other Emirati and international brands. When it comes to occasions, I either wear a set from the Ceylon collection or my favourite diamond set.
Dubai has always been known as a jewellery destination with a great history about it. Over the years, I have seen it evolve from embracing traditional designs to adopting a new, contemporary take on jewellery.
