"The allure of the August birthstone is captured in this three-stone ring presented by India's Chintan. A gently tapered sterling silver band cradles prong-set natural peridots, faceted to capture and reflect light."

"I am basically a Gujrati but have settled in Mumbai. I grew up in a joint family with many cousins and relatives living under one roof. We led a very humble lifestyle staying in rented accommodation and did not enjoy the luxury of life in terms of amenities, as we were not very financially stable. However, the love and care of family always united us and today, after 30 years, I can proudly say that we have our own homes and all our hard work and dedication have paid off.
"My grandfather started making handmade jewelry in 1940 and my father learned this art at a very tender age. So being the third generation, I was always fascinated with it, and curious to learn the art and the trade. For me, jewelry is not only an art but also a reflection of our culture and our rich tradition of jewelry making, which I want to preserve and show to the world.
"I have learned a lot from my older brother Nirav who, even as a child, was very sincere while I was very naughty, and so my father had very low hopes that I could master the art and continue our family tradition business. But I was lucky to have an older brother, who today is my teacher as well as my mentor. He taught me the art and techniques of making jewelry and now I have few artisans to whom I am able to teach our techniques and the use of tools.
"My brother is such an inspiration for me. He encouraged me and gave me the opportunity to visit Western countries to see, know and learn their ways of making modern jewelry. This of course enabled us to make a fusion with our traditional jewelry styles. So, apart from traditional jewelry, we also design a lot of modern styles to suit everyone's taste.
"We work mostly with sterling silver and gemstones, and often use gold as an embellishment. We also make traditional jewelry in pure gold. We buy silver in its purest form from banks or dealers, making sure that we get the right quality always. The remains and scraps are also utilized 100 percent.
"I love making rings and earrings, which are my best sellers. I love to play with different color stones to keep with fashion trends as well as reflect the personality of the person. To know what women want in jewelry and meet their expectations is the most challenging task.
"For me, my shoppers are my biggest asset and so is their feedback. They inspire me to improve in beautiful ways. Every comment and critique I receive teaches me something. You are always at the back of my mind when I design anything new and I love to relate to you who wear my designs.
"I love every moment of work. To be able to get your own ideas to become reality is an amazing feeling. I am also proud to be associated with you as you promote my work and have given me an opportunity to reach millions of people.
"For me, family is truly a great strength— if you succeed or fail they are always on your side. We all work in the same workshop, using the same machines and there are other artisans helping all of us.
"My father, brother and I create our own styles of jewelry from our own ideas and inspiration. There is no other feeling that can surpass the feeling of working together with your own family and enjoying the fruit of your success."
I am so pleased with my purchase! I've searched many stores online and locally in California for some dangle earrings to replace the ones I had lost but never found any as beautiful as the blue topaz dangle earrings I found by Chintan!!! Thank you Chintan your artistry and quality is superb.
I love Chintan's work, and these earrings are no exception. I appreciate the unique shape and style of these earrings and can't wait to wear them. They are really versatile and can be worn both for casual or more dressy occasions. Simply wonderful!
A very delicate piece. I wasn't sure if i liked it or not, but the more I looked at it I got the feeling that the garnet in the middle is a seed that is protected waiting for the next bloom
I wanted something that I could wear everyday, not flashy but elegant. These caught my eyes. Unusual design, just the right size. Elegant. Glad that I purchased them.
I LOVE this earrings and I am so glad I decided to buy them. They are even prettier in person. They are very well made and feel very high quality. The design is elegant and flattering. I like that they aren't too big. They could be dressy or more casual. The moonstones are so pretty in person. I can't say enough good things about these beautiful earrings. Thank-you Chintan!
Beautiful ring! Elegant setting, filigree band , and brilliant moonstone make this work of art a treasured gift. More lovely than pictured. Highly recommend.
Delicate and beautiful. I am so happy to add these lightweight earrings to my collection. They are a work of art. Thank you for the beautiful craftsmanship!
I was looking for a pair of chalcedony stud earrings and decided on these and I am so happy I did. The craftsmanship and color of the stone are beautiful and perfect for every day wear.
So beautiful, and it becomes part of you — so comfortable to wear, and when you happen to look at your hand, you’ll get a little thrill, time after time!
Beautiful earrings - larger than expected and they have some weight. They go well with chain necklaces and anything with Labradorite in it. They will add a touch of Boho chic to your everyday outfits and the Labradorite is a neutral color that goes well with most other colors. And they are beautifully crafted.
I bought these earrings as a birthday gift for a good friend. She wears a lot of green and blue, so I am very pleased to say that she wears these earrings often! Their length and weight are just right; the stones catch the light wonderfully. I'm happy to say that my friend is truly enjoying this gift.
THE MINUTE I FOUND THESE EARRINGS, I HAD TO HAVE THEM! THEY ARE SO DELICATE AND PRETTY, AND YET VERY WELL MADE. NOT WEAK OR FLIMSY, AND THE AMETHYST IS EXACTLY AS SHOWN - THE PERFECT BRIGHT PURPLE COLOR. SO GLAD I BOUGHT THESE! BEAUTIFUL WORK, CHINTAN!!
I love the craftsmanship, it’s flawless . The stone is disappointingly unattractive, half of the stone is milky dusty not transparent, and half is more clearer.
During the COVID shutdown, my two friend called me daily. Our conversations made my life bearable. We shared FaceTime calls from Kentucky, Minnesota, and Missouri. Each night we came together for cheer. I wanted something to celebrate our friendship in this difficult time! Since we all travel and meditate, I bought everyone in the group one. Perfect.
I like these earrings because they are dainty and they go with everything. The moonstone is very pretty and they even change color in a different light.
Wonderful pieces of work. Nicely set moonstone and elegant design. Not too heavy not too big. Wonderful gift for someone near to my heart I shared some light with. She is delighted with them and the symbol it expressed. Compliments to Chintan with this elegant and very wearable designAlso wonderful experience with customer service as i made a mistake with the delivery address. Was taken care of wi... read more
This is the ring I wear every day. It goes with everything and I get many compliments on it. The moonstone looks like gray clouds in low light and shines a bit blue in sunlight. It has a mysterious sort of charm.
The band is delicate but made very well, and the stone is really nice. It changes color to reflect the lighting and what I'm wearing so it's always a treat to see what it will look like.
These moonstone earrings are even more beautiful in person, and they are versatile. Simplistic enough for everyday wear, but elegant enough to wear on special occasions. I purchased these earrings for my daughter as a gift, and she absolutely loves them. Thank you, Chintan!
I absolutely looove this ring. It fits great and the workmanship is superb. I also want to point out that u are one of the very best internet provider I have used. I thank the artist and I thank the program for the good work you are doing for the talented artist.
I was extremely pleased with these earrings. Labradorite as a stone is very variable and the color, quality and sheen of the stones in the earring are as nice as any pieces of this stone I have ever seen. I also love the design which is a bit unusual and the workmanship is excellent. Super pleased with this purchase.
I wanted moonstone earrings that were long, delicate, and unique. These earrings met my three ?wants? and then some. These earrings are exquisite! They are simple, elegant and hang beautifully. I don't write reviews but am so pleased with these earrings that I had to share my thoughts. Thank you Chintan for your beautiful, artistic work.
The day after I received this necklace I wore it to work and received many compliments. The details and quality of the moonstone are gorgeous. With the neutral color of moonstone I know I will be wearing this necklace often.
Sparkling Temptation is a large ring that has a unique design that flatters the hand and makes a colorful statement. The stone color is as pictured in the photo
Smaller to medium sized earrings, lovely craftsmanship and beautiful stones (labradorite is one of my very favorite stones).First time buying from this artisan and I will definitely be back. Thank you!
