Story Behind the Art:

'Hello, my name is Shanker and I come from a farming background. I studied till 10th grade and, as a family tradition, I was obliged to work along with my parents. I started designing and crafting sterling silver jewelry and slowly, with the help of family and friends, I was able to establish myself in the field. With the help of my uncle, I set up my own workshop in the city. Today, I have achieved a lot in terms of design, quality and appreciation.'
