Glam Gold Collection is designed keeping in mind the demand for variations in gold jewellery”

The beautiful ensembles were designed by Asif and Sajeda. It was indeed an evening adorned with style and substance!
Targeting the modern-day woman who is firmly rooted to her Indian values, Glam Gold II collection extensively focuses on elaborate Jaipur chatai & multi-colour enameling engraved on gold surface in intricate floral designs.
