Sapna Mehta
Sapna Mehta, born and raised in London, was creatively inclined from childhood. While other kids were busy getting dirty in the garden, she spent time creating beautiful objects. When Sapna turned 16 and her mother decided to buy her a pair of earrings, Sapna insisted she sketched the design for her family jeweler. So, she did and to everyone’s surprise the piece turned out beautiful and her family jeweler created several more pieces which were then sold out at private showcases in Paris. Sapna knew then this was her calling.
Two years later Sapna did an internship with a jewellery manufacturing unit in Mumbai. During her internship she learned the different aspects of jewellery manufacturing from casting, molding, refining to designing. During her internship, colored stones and gems fascinated her the most and later she decided to pursue gemology from the Gemological Institute of America. Upon her return she opened her own store in the UK where she created pieces for famous footballers such as David Ginola, Frank Lampard, Bob Wilson.
Today Sapna has her own studio and three jewellery lines. Sapna Mehta Jewellery: Jewellery with a refined balance of our culture and modernity, to meet the modern Indian woman’s needs. Sapna Mehta High Jewellery: Bespoke pieces that display her passion for creating jewellery that tell their own story. And now, Sapna Mehta Sterling Silver: Silver Jewellery that make for great everyday wear.
Being the creative director of her brand, she designs thinking of what she would wear, making her pieces playful and true to her personality. The stones are hand-picked by her from across the world. She owns her own manufacturing unit to ensure unsurpassed craftsmanship and detailing.
