Pallavi Verma is a Silver & Gold smith, designer, and educator who believes that jewellery is not just worn — it is made, felt, and experienced.

Her journey into metalsmithing with her began with a deep curiosity about how raw metal transforms into something personal and meaningful. Coming from a background connected to traditional Indian goldsmithing, Pallavi moved to Europe at the age of 19 to pursue jewellery design. She spent six years studying at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, where she completed her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Jewellery Design and Gold & Silversmithing.

After returning to India, Pallavi spent over a decade working within the jewellery industry as a designer, maker, and educator. Her work draws from both Eastern and Western cultural experiences, exploring themes of identity, emotion, and interaction. For Pallavi, jewellery goes beyond ornament — it is about creating pieces that engage the wearer both physically and psychologically.

Her first collection, The Marks of Maturity, was inspired by nature and was shortlisted for the Masters in Creativity International Jewellery Design Contest in 2017. She received 2nd prize at the MIC International Jewelry Design Contest (2019–20) and won the Remote Viewer’s Choice Award twice through AdornAxis, based in New York City. In 2023–24, Pallavi was honoured with the One for the Future Award at New York City Jewelry Week.

She has been invited to give lectures at institutions including the National Institute of Fashion Technology, Vogue Institute of Art & Design, and the Indian Institute of Gems & Jewellery. Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at Galerie Marzee in the Netherlands and in museums across Portugal, Japan, the United States, and Russia.

Through Bangalore Jewellery Centre, Pallavi created a space where this craft is no longer hidden. Here, anyone can step into the workshop, learn the techniques of metalsmithing, and experience the joy of making jewellery by hand.

Her workshops focus on slowing down, working with material, and discovering the satisfaction of creating something truly your own.

Because the most meaningful jewellery is the one you make yourself.
