Your pieces have a royal soul and modern edge – what’s the story behind The Mughal Jewellers?
The Mughal Jewellers started from my love for the past – the beauty in old Mughal paintings, buildings, and sculptures. I’ve always felt that kind of art shouldn’t just stay in history books; it should be worn, lived, and celebrated today. I wanted to create jewellery that carries that old-world charm but feels bold and fresh for the modern world. Each piece is a small way of keeping that timeless beauty alive.
Brass, plated in 22 Karat Gold – tell us why you chose this particular combination and what it symbolizes for you.
I chose brass plated in 22-karat gold because I wanted my pieces to feel luxurious but still be accessible. Brass has strength and warmth, and the gold plating adds that richness without making it unreachable. For me, it’s about creating jewellery that feels special and lasting – something you can treasure without it feeling out of reach.
Each piece looks like it’s straight out of a museum. Who or what inspires your designs? Any historical influences?
I find a lot of inspiration in Mughal architecture, old sculptures, and the craftsmanship of the past. I’m drawn to the shapes, the details, and the sense of grandeur that feels timeless. My designs are my way of bringing that forgotten beauty into the present.
The Mini Dejhoor has taken over social media – what sparked the idea behind this iconic piece?
The Mini Dejhoor was inspired by traditional Kashmiri jewellery, but I wanted to reimagine it for today’s world – something bold yet wearable. I loved the idea of taking something deeply cultural and giving it a fresh, modern spirit. I think people connected with it because it feels both personal and powerful – a small piece that carries a lot of meaning.
How do you strike the perfect balance between traditional craftsmanship and current-day elegance?
For me, it’s about respecting the past while embracing the present. I look at traditional techniques and craftsmanship, but I want my pieces to feel fresh and relevant today. I focus on the details – the quality, the design, and how the piece feels when you wear it. By combining timeless materials with a modern twist, I aim to create jewellery that feels both rooted in history and completely of the moment.
Talk to us about your master artisans – how important is the ‘handcrafted’ element in your brand’s philosophy?
My artisans are the heart of The Mughal Jewellers. The handcrafted element is incredibly important to me because it’s where the soul of the design truly comes to life. Each piece is made with skill, care, and attention to detail, passed down through generations. I believe that the human touch in creating something is what makes it truly special.
Which Mughal era symbols or motifs do we most commonly see in your jewellery?
Paisleys have always been a huge source of inspiration for me. The intricate curves and flowing patterns are not only beautiful but also deeply symbolic of growth and movement. I love how they can be both bold and delicate at the same time, which is what I aim for in my designs – to create pieces that feel timeless but still have a sense of fluidity and modern elegance
What does “regal artistry of Asia” mean to you personally – and how do you weave that into every collection?
To me, the ‘regal artistry of Asia’ represents the rich history, culture, and craftsmanship that have shaped the continent for centuries. It’s the intricate patterns, the luxurious materials, and the timeless beauty that have always inspired me. I weave this artistry into each collection by focusing on detail, using traditional techniques in a way that feels fresh and modern. I want each piece to carry that same sense of elegance and grace, making the wearer feel like they’re part of something royal, yet personal.
Who is the Mughal Jewellers muse? The woman you imagine wearing your pieces.
My muse is a woman who is confident in her individuality and embraces both heritage and modernity. She’s someone who values craftsmanship and the stories behind the pieces she wears, but isn’t afraid to stand out. I imagine her as someone who wears jewellery not just to accessorize, but to make a statement, to express her uniqueness, and to create moments that are unforgettable.
What’s next for The Mughal Jewellers? Should we expect a new collection, maybe more viral-worthy jewels?
The future of The Mughal Jewellers is all about pushing boundaries while staying true to our roots. Yes, we’re working on a new collection that blends classic inspirations with fresh, bold ideas. I want to keep creating pieces that tell a story, capture attention, and become timeless favorites. As for viral-worthy jewels, I believe in creating pieces that resonate with the wearer, and if they become iconic along the way, that’s just a beautiful bonus.
