Did someone say paper jewellery? Well, yes.
As spring makes a frolicsome entrance this March, your savoured pieces of jewellery will also wriggle out of lethargy and sport themselves brightly with different attires.
Every piece of jewellery comes with a promise of a healthy history — it is either passed down through generations, or given as a gift to mark a special moment, or perhaps unearthed in a market in a faraway destination.
When it comes to jewellery made out of paper in avant-garde designs, we invariably hear jewellery moguls neighing with skepticism — paper is light, non-malleable, and has questionable longevity, they often remark.
Ananya Vyas, a paper jewellery artist and owner of Girl Thinks, a paper jewellery retail outlet, defuses the myths around it and propounds the adaptibility of this form of jewellery.
