HOW DO I GET INSPIRATION FOR JEWELLERY DESIGN?
We conducted a small workshop for our Design students to let us know how they get Inspiration for their Jewellery design. We receive overwhelming responses from our students, it is very interesting to see what are the different sources from where these students get inspiration. Below are the responses of few students. Pooja Vishwakarma Look at other designs for inspiration- Obviously, this does not mean copying outright another designer’s jewelry ideas. You don’t have to limit yourself. You’ll find more inspiration by looking at pieces with different themes and concepts, or different types of metals and gemstones. Stay in touch with the latest fashions- We should not limit ourselves to fashion trends in clothing and jewelry. We must take a look at trends in architecture, film, music, and other industries that affect fashion trends as well. Follow jewelry blogs- Reading jewelry blogs for what’s new in jewelry design is another effective way to find inspiration. There are many excellent writers out there who can keep you updated on the latest innovations, design ideas, trends, and fashions. Archana Patel Start sketching- Sometimes, all you need to doto find your creative spark isto just start sketching. Sometimes it’s themixing of ideas when you lookback at your sketches, orsimply using ofideas that have been on yourmind that allows yourcreativity to flow again. Way of life- In India, there are severaltrending inspirations thatcan be transformed into the design of jewellery. Youcan get inspiration fromthe way of life of the people,how they dress, how they make a visualrepresentation of it. For example, an Indian saree with all of its beautiful colors & patterns can be used as an inspiration to be transformed into jewellery. Social media- With the vast trend in Indianmovies, inspiration is being takenfrom these movies, series, cartoons and aretransformed into jewellery sketches.Jewellery showcase inmovies such as Padmavat, Jodha Akbar, Bajirao Mastani amongothers turned out to betrendsetters for the season. Pushpa Devi Inspiration from Nature– A designer can get inspiration from natural resources like birds, trees, shells, and all that God-gifted nature. It can be in the form of a bird feather, a bright flower, the patterns on a butterfly, or the colors of the sky when the sunsets. Exhibitions- A great source of inspiration can also come from exhibitions, be it in art or fashion, books, a visit to the markets, magazines, pictures, catalogs. Jyoti Singh Sketching- Planning any ideas to circulate, pencil or pen is needed. Similarly, for sketching or scribbling, we need the ability to visualize and analyze the concept. So, once the inspiration is achieved, half the work is completed. Workshops- It helps a designer to develop a new skill set. It helps to create new ways of thinking, new skills, new ideas, having fun while learning. Vaishali Upadhyay Designing involves skill, creativity, originality with an ability to visualize ideas Observing, recording and analyzing from things around us. Natural Sources- Nature is an endless ocean of ideas. We can capture the inspirations from an animal on the run, a bird in flight, blooming flowers, butterflies, insects, or fish. Historical Sources- Inspiration can be taken from museums, historical monuments, libraries, sculptures, Vases, calligraphy paintings, and artifacts. All the recent creativity is a blend of ancient with modern ideas. Themes & Concepts- If a designer thinks with an open mind he/she can express a variety of themes from Magazines, catalogs, books, photographs, visits to jewelry stores, exhibitions.
15 Different Cuts and Shapes of Coloured Gemstones
Coloured Stone Cuts and ShapesThe word lapidary (adj.) relates to the work of cutting, grinding, polishing, or engraving precious stones, mostly other than diamonds. It is a process that turns a coloured precious or semi-precious rough stone into a beautifully shaped gem to use in jewellery. A well-cut stone helps to hide imperfections and bring out its true colour and brilliance. Broadly, there are two styles of gem cutting – faceted and non-faceted, or cabochon. While faceted gemstones have geometric shapes and flat polished surfaces, cabochons have rounded surfaces. Today, fancy cuts such as flowers, leaves and stars can also be seen in coloured stones. It is the artistry of the gem cutter or lapidary (n.) that makes each coloured gemstone a piece of art. Here are some of the most common cuts used in gemstones: 1. Cabochon Cut The cabochon, also known as a cab, is the oldest form of shaped and polished gemstone dating back to the 13 or 14th century. The name, derived from the Norman French word “caboche”, meaning head, describes the stone as having a flat bottom with a convex or rounded domed top. The cut helps to display characteristics like asterism (the star effect) in star sapphires and rubies, chatoyancy (Cat’s Eye effect) in tourmalines, Tiger’s Eyes, chrysoberyls, iridescence (changing of colour in some lights or angles) in opals, or adularescence (milky-bluish lustre) in moonstones, rose quartz and agates. While the traditional cabochon was oval in shape, today cabochons are available in rounds, triangles, and rectangles. 2. Buff-Top This cut is a mix of a cabochon and a faceted gem. The top has a cab dome while the bottom contains facets on the pavilion below the girdle. These strategically placed facets allow light to reflect from the pavilion, giving the gemstone an illusion of depth. Bufftops are often found in men’s jewellery. This kind of cut is exactly the opposite of a rose cut. 3. Round Brilliant-Cut The round brilliant-cut gemstone, also known as the Round Cut, American Ideal Cut or American Standard Cut has 57 facets. It was perfected by mathematical genius Marcel Tolkowsky in 1919, calculated with variables such as the index of refraction and covalent bond angles. Today, the best diamond solitaires in the world use this cut. Tolkowsky’s recommended cut height for a Round Brilliant is 58% of the diameter of the diamond, 43% for the pavilion, and 14% for the height of the crown. This ratio provides maximum fire, brilliance and sparkle. This cut is also commonly found in coloured gemstones. 4. Oval Cut The Oval cut has an elliptical shape with 69 facets. Created in the 1950s, it is a hybrid between a round cut and a marquise cut. Often used in coloured stone and diamond engagement rings, the elongated silhouette of the gemstone creates the illusion of a larger gemstone allowing the finger on which it is worn to look longer and slimmer. 5. Baguette Cut Long, oblong and rectangular-shaped Baguette cut gemstones first appeared during the 1920s-30s art deco movement. Crafted in step cuts the 14 facets resemble a pyramid without a top. It has clean lines and a modern, geometric look. Baguette cut stones can be either regular or tapered, resembling a trapezoid. 6. Princess Cut The Princess cut, or Square cut, is the second most popular cut, after the Round Brilliant cut. It is technically known as the Square Modified Brilliant because it is a square version of the Round Brilliant cut. It has between 58 and 76 facets that give it brilliance and sparkle and maximize its lustre. A square-cut gem retains 80% of the rough gemstone. Solitaire engagement rings have princess cut gemstones with trilliants at their sides. 7. Pear Cut A Pear cut gemstone looks like a teardrop. It offers 71 facets that reflect light and allow the colour to showcase dramatically. It is a difficult cut that needs an expert lapidary to align the point with the peak of the rounded end. The gemstone also requires a six-prong setting to maintain support for its fragile point. Pear cut coloured stones have donned jewellery since the 1400s and are a favourite in earrings and pendants even today. 8. Emerald Cut The Emerald cut is like a rectangle from the top, except that it has trimmed or truncated corners. Its 50 facets help to emphasize the gem’s colour and clarity. The cut was originally designed for emeralds. Sinceemeralds occur in nature with numerous inclusions and are softer than other precious stones, cutting them was difficult due to potential chipping. The Emerald cut addressed those issues by decreasing the amount of force applied during cutting to protect the stone from chipping and breakage. 9. Octagon Cut The Rectangular cut or Octagon cut gemstone has 53 facets. This cut is different from the Emerald cut as the steps on the pavilion are not equidistant. In this cut, the four corners are metered and the facets run in steps parallel to the gemstone circumference. It is also a preferred cut in which the deep colour highlights the beauty of the gemstone. 10. Cushion Cut This classic Cushion cut has 64 facets. Also known as the Pillow cut, Old Miner cut, or Old European cut, the Cushion cut was popular in jewellery of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Like a Princess cut, this cut also reduces the wastage of the rough gem while maintaining its lustre and brilliance. 11. Marquise Cut The Marquise cut, also known as the Navette cut, has 57 facets. This modified brilliant cut has a ratio of length to width 2:1 to help reflect the most amount of light and maximize sparkle and colour. In a Marquise cut, the two endpoints must line up with each other and the two halves of the stone should be perfect copies of each other. The cut offers more weight per carat than any other cut creating an illusion of a larger gemstone. 12. Briolette One of the most difficult shapes to cut,

Tuhin Ghosh, IIGJ Mumbai Final Year Student Selected as First Runner Up at the Artisan Awards 2023
19th May 2023, Mumbai: Winners of the prestigious Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2023 were announced in a dazzling function at the St. Regis Hotel, Mumbai, organised by the Gems & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC). Nine winners were announced out of twenty-eight finalists, who had been selected from a total of 575 entries from designers in different parts of the world. Among the twenty-eight finalists who waited with bated breaths at the event attended by the who’s who in the gem & jewellery industry, were two alumni and three students of IIGJ Mumbai. The audience erupted in cheers when the name of Tuhin Ghosh was announced as the first runner up in the category “The Art of Abstraction”. “We are incredibly proud of Tuhin’s remarkable achievement in The Artisan Awards. His exceptional talent, dedication and hard work have been recognized on an international stage,” said Mr. Bharat Vaswani, Head of the Institute, IIGJ Mumbai, speaking on the occasion. “This achievement reflects the high-quality education and training we provide to our students at IIGJ. It is a testament to their creativity, craftsmanship, and the guidance of our experienced faculty members. Tuhin’s success not only brings honour to IIGJ but also serves as an inspiration to future jewellery designers and underscores the Institute’s commitment to nurturing and developing the next generation of creative talent in the global jewellery design industry.” In Tuhin’s own words: “I am Tuhin Ghosh, final year student of BA in Gems and Jewellery at IIGJ Mumbai. I am the second-generation to pursue jewellery designing and merchandising in my family. IIGJ Mumbai has aided me in my passion, fuelled my ambition and plays a vital role for me by helping me face (design) challenges and find solutions. Competing in GJEPC’s ‘Artisan Awards for Jewellery Design’ has been a turning point for me. I had not really expected to be in the finals, let alone be selected as the First Runner Up! My inspiration is taken from Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky’s famous artwork “Circles in a Circle”, 1923, that I shaped into a pair of earrings. Kandinsky was known for his visual symphony (synesthesia) where he used to experience the union of various colours based on different sounds that he heard. My piece is a representation of the ever-changing harmony of colours and human emotions which, I would like to believe, is perfectly tuned to correlate with the feelings Kandinsky might have had while listening to music. M/s. Laxmi Dia Pvt. Ltd. were kind enough to sponsor me, giving me the platform and encouragement that I needed to bring my idea to life. I believe this is just the beginning of my story. Through my designs I aspire to ignite a spark within everyone and wish to be a guiding light for the new generation yet to come.” IIGJ is proud and overjoyed not only for Tuhin’s achievement but also that of the other finalists – Adityan Tamilarasan (Student – B.A. in Gems & Jewellery), Divakar Badrinarayan (Alumnus – Post Graduate Diploma in Jewellery Management), Priya Das (Alumna – P G Diploma in Jewellery Management) and Sushil Bhalerao (Alumnus – Jewellery Design).
