Reimagining Iconic 90s Indian Jewelry Motifs as Timeless 18K Gold Pendants

In India, the 1990s were an aesthetic revolution rather than just a decade. Jewellery was a symbol of love and legacy, from the elaborate temple jewellery seen on the silver screen to the gold chains our mothers treasured. We are witnessing a "Gold Renaissance," in which those recognisable, chunky motifs are being reduced to simple, 18K gold works of art.

Tradition shouldn't be kept in a locker, in our opinion at Heer by GIVA. These sentimental symbols are reimagined in our newest collection as multipurpose gold pendants for women made with ethical lab grown diamonds for the conscientious collector.
