Three families, a shared language of silver

Every motif begins with something worth keeping.

The natural world / 01

Vann

Silver, shaped into everything that grows.

A lotus opening. A bird mid-turn. A garden held in silver. Vann carries the natural motifs of Indian carving, block printing and miniature painting into objects made to be carried and kept.

The architectural world / 02

Mahal

A thousand strikes. Every one exact.

Five designs explore the discipline of pattern. Rosettes, lattices and scrollwork draw on the craft vocabulary of Rajasthan, bringing repeated forms into balance through repoussé, chasing and carefully darkened recesses.

Kathā

Some stories deserve to be held.

A blessing. A procession. Two figures together. Kathā turns remembered scenes into silver, raising figures from the sheet and refining each gesture until a story becomes something tangible.

Vinyas silver handbag

Journey of a jewel

Raised. Refined. Revealed.

01

Raised from within

Repoussé shapes the motif from the back of the silver sheet, bringing petals, birds and figures into relief.

02

Defined by hand

Chasing refines the surface from the front: the edge of a leaf, the fold of a garment, the line of a feather.

03

Given light and shadow

On designs with an oxidised finish, darkened recesses let the raised silver stand forward. Piercing, granulation, enamel and stone setting add their own character to selected pieces.

The vocabulary

Five techniques. Every one of them leaves a mark you can find.

Sterling silver is a common metal. What it costs here is the hours spent moving it by hand — raised from behind, turned, struck again from the front, finished so the shadow falls where it was meant to. A single bag takes something near fifteen thousand hammer strikes. Each technique leaves its own evidence at close range.

Repoussé

The design is hammered from the reverse of the sheet until it stands in relief on the front. The silver is stretched into its shape; nothing is cast, nothing is added. A panel that tears in the eighth hour begins again as a flat sheet.

What to look for

Turn a panel over. The relief is there in reverse, hollow behind every raised form. A cast piece is solid, or backed flat.
