The Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2025: Redefining Indian Craftsmanship for a New Era The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) is once again calling on talented jewellery designers worldwide to participate in the prestigious Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2025. With a fresh theme for the year, “Indian Crafts Reimagined”, the competition invites designers to blend the timeless beauty of Indian craftsmanship with contemporary design sensibilities.
The 2025 Theme: Indian Crafts Reimagined
Indian jewellery has long been celebrated for its rich heritage, intricate techniques, and cultural depth. For the 2025 awards, designers are challenged to take these traditional elements—such as Kundan, Meenakari enamelling, Jadau, Filigree, and Jali work—and reimagine them for a modern audience. The goal is to create pieces that not only respect India’s artisanal roots but also appeal to today’s fashion-forward market. Designers can experiment with contemporary silhouettes, materials, and styles, all while maintaining the essence of the traditional craftsmanship.
The competition also highlights iconic jewellery pieces such as the Mangalsutra, Temple Jewellery, Guttapusalu necklaces, and more. These symbols of Indian culture will be the canvas upon which designers are invited to innovate, creating stunning pieces that balance tradition and modernity.
The Challenge
Participants are encouraged to select a traditional Indian jewellery technique or cultural symbol and give it a modern twist. This is an opportunity to show the world how Indian heritage can shine on the global stage through cutting-edge design. Whether it’s reinventing the Polki slice diamond technique or modernising the Navaratna piece, the possibilities are limitless.
What’s at Stake
Winning the Artisan Award is not just a victory; it’s a career-defining moment. Along with cash prizes, winners will receive invaluable exposure, with their designs featured in prominent fashion and luxury publications. Additionally, they will gain recognition within the global jewellery industry and have their winning pieces professionally photographed for further publicity.
Important Dates and Submission
To enter, submit your designs by 31st October 2024 through the official website: theartisanawards.com
