~ Anupreeta ~
Anupreeta is a series of four necklaces, each slightly different, but all channeling the same spirit. They are named after my college roommate , dear friend and once upon a time, my partner-in-crime in a rather grand dream of opening a little silver boutique together. The boutique never happened because life as it tends to, had other plans.
Today, after years and miles between us, she is visiting me from Goa and has very graciously agreed to be my model. She is every bit the Anupreeta I remember: stunning, free-spirited, very wild at heart and entirely her own person.
The necklaces are strung with traditional dholki beads — generously sized silver beads that look substantial but are wonderfully light to wear. Their secret is a hard wax or lac core, covered in a fine film of silver, giving you the look and feel of a large silver bead without the weight of solid silver.
Each of the four necklaces has its own little personality, but they all carry the same generous, slightly old-world exuberance that I love about dholkis. They have presence without being heavy, and a certain easy glamour that doesn’t need much else around it.
The silver boutique we once dreamed up never opened, but the friendship and our love for silver has endured quite beautifully.
Some dreams change shape. Some friendships don’t.
Here’s to female friendships and to that Anupreeta in your lives. 🫶🏼
