For some, jewellery is merely an additional element to add that something ‘extra’ to an outfit. And for others, it’s emblematic of their persona and style. Whatever be the calling, it’s a no-brainer that we all love a new addition to our jewellery boxes. Whether it’s an heirloom ring passed down from the times of our grandma or a dainty, medallion chain we’ve been eyeing online, the hunt never ends.

We’ve curated our favourite homegrown jewellery labels that deserve a spot in your box and some pixels on your ‘gram. Not only will these pieces make you look up-to-date with the trends but extend your contribution to the local artisan communities of the country. Best of both worlds? Hands down yes.
