Spectacular objects, drawn from a single private collection, will explore the broad themes of tradition and modernity in Indian jewelry.
The exhibition will examine the influence that India had on avant-garde European jewellery made by Cartier and other leading houses and will conclude with contemporary pieces made by JAR and Bhagat, which are inspired by a creative fusion of Mughal motifs and Art Deco ‘Indian’ designs.
