“Some of the most superlative jewellery ever made in pakistan has been handcrafted by the master goldsmiths of Lahore, colloquially known as the ‘babus’. I want to make this legacy thrive again.”

“The value of jewellery for today’s connoisseur goes far beyond the provenance of gemstones. It’s about design, craft and wearability. As heritage crafts get rarer and as they become more endangered, their legacy will become more valuable than the most precious of gemstones. These are the heirlooms that will find their pride of place in museums tomorrow.”
