Description
Mayabazaar's 'beachy' luminous bracelet hand wrapped in nylon yarn is from the stunning collection inspired by the diversity of life under the sea. Shells, starfish and coral are given a new life in gold and silver. Each handmade statement necklace is created using techniques of charakkam and crochet, characteristic of Maya’s unique handcrafted look. The colourful threads look even richer alongside metallic beads, evoking memories by the seashore. Maya produces craft-intensive, small-batch, handmade jewelry that uses unique, lesser-known techniques like charrakkam or patwakaam and gundikaam. Both are knotting techniques that are in danger of dying because of eroding traditional markets. We provide design interventions to these artisans to create accessories that are Indian in their spirit and global in their iterations.
