Hand-chased sterling silver, single piece
₹ 1,84,000
Anantha means without end. The vine on this kada has no beginning and no seam — it is chased as one continuous line around the band, so the eye can travel it forever without finding where the maker started.
The form is raised from a single sheet rather than cast. It takes one craftsman close to three weeks: the sheet is annealed and hammered over a wooden former, the floral relief is punched from the reverse, then the surface is chased from the front to sharpen every petal.
The inner band is left mirror-smooth and unengraved. It is the part nobody sees and the part the wearer feels every day.
Made to order in 3 – 4 weeks. Private viewings by appointment.

Living with it
Silver darkens; that is the metal remembering the air. Wipe with a dry cotton cloth after wear and keep it in the enclosed flannel sleeve. Use the polishing cloth sparingly — a soft patina in the recesses is what makes chased work read.
