Hanut Singh’s timeless jewellery is inspired by a juxtaposition of delicate floral motifs and strong geometric patterns. His designs interweave the intricacies of art deco and traditional Mughal and Rajputana craftsmanship, to create timeless pieces that evoke a sense of timeless cosmopolitanism.
For just over ten years Hanut Singh has been quietly and meticulously designing jewelry that at once reveals his modern sensibility, appreciation of history and obsession with craftsmanship. The personal touch he applies to his creations extends to the way he has presented them exclusively at private trunk shows and by-appointment-only boutiques. From these viewings word-of-mouth buzz has grown into a significant cult following. Diane von Furstenberg, Mary-Kate Olsen, Wendi Deng Murdoch, Beyoncé, Madonna and Christian Louboutin are just a handful of his discriminating clients.
Although he was never formally trained, Hanut’s jewellery education truly began from the time he was a child. The designer is a descendant of the Kapurthala royal family of India who astonished the world with their style in the first half of the twentieth century. The family’s legendary treasures and discriminating taste inspired the greatest jewelry houses in the world to new heights. It also ignited Hanut’s passion to become a designer.
Hanut pulls the historical elements together with unique design details resulting in a totally original collection. For example he sources antique pearls because he prefers the patina of the vintage gems. To add texture to the overall appearance of some pieces Hanut conceived a signature setting combining white gold on the front and yellow gold on the reverse. The blend of elements and immaculate proportions of the jewels give them a totally modern look.
