Jewel & Jewel only at Sayuri

I am an apparel designer by qualification but passionate about jewelry. This and a frustrating tenure at a corporate house led me to start my own brand of affordable designer jewelry in August 2008 – Sayuri – an indication of my fascination with Japanese culture. Many I know, have wondered if this has anything to do with the book – The Memoirs of Geisha. No, I only read the book long after choosing this name for my brand.

Sayuri – means a small Lily. To me its a flower that blooms to give happiness after surviving a dark storm. I found it to be metaphorical of my state of mind at that time.

Through this blog I hope to discuss the various aspects of jewelry – Inspiration, making and sale that I have learnt in the course of the last 18 months – a journey that was and is completely aided by the internet. You can read more about how Sayuri came to be on my About me page
