Story Behind the Art:
Aparna enjoys continuing her family's silver legacy. 'I come from Jaipur, land of gemstones and silver, where many jewelers come from families who have inherited the silversmith's craft from their ancestors. My husband and I work together. I prefer to design and he prefers to craft them, so together we make a great team.'
