Charkha

I see the way the world could be I see that it can start with me.

“Each of us has the power to influence; power in our words and in our actions. To use that power to make a difference, it’s important to be authentic, consistent and honest. Just keep that wheel turning, and you can be a force for good in the world.”

FAYE D'SOUZA, AWARD-WINNING JOURNALIST AND ENTREPRENEUR

The spirit of a visionary who leads and creates a positive impact in the world is captured through jewels inspired by the design of a charkha or spinning wheel. The conviction to empower others is thoughtfully captured through this symbol of positive change and sustainability.

Specially designed and crafted for the Charkha collection is a first-of-its-kind proprietary ‘Charkha cut’ diamond. The diamond evokes the spokes of a spinning wheel as it sparkles within movable jewels.

Born of innovative design thinking, the Charkha diamond defies the existing rules of play of light, maximum brilliance, fire, and utility usually followed in diamond cutting. The natural diamond is cut to 16 folds unlike the standard 8 folds, and has 82 facets as opposed to 52 facets in a standard diamond.

The designs of the Charkha collection not only spotlight the first-of-its-kind proprietary Charkha diamond, but also feature an innovative spinning movement. The 18K rose-gold jewels also feature round pavé diamonds, as well as lapis and blue sapphire in some pieces.
