Tinkle Jewels: Melding Tradition with Contemporary Elegance

Tinkle Jewels: Melding Tradition with Contemporary Elegance

Founded by Sakshi Sharma, Tinkle Jewels is a flourishing startup rooted in the beauty of Indian craftsmanship and innovation. Sakshi’s journey with Tinkle Jewels began as an impromptu creative experiment in her 11th-grade year. Inspired by her love for arts and crafts, she designed her first piece as a heartfelt gift for her mother. To her surprise, the intricate, handmade jewelry piece captured the attention of her teachers and classmates, earning enthusiastic feedback and requests for orders. What started as a hobby soon evolved into a new business venture.

Encouraged by this early success, Sakshi continued designing jewelry throughout her final years in school. After finishing her 12th grade, she moved to Gurgaon for higher education, where she continued her work with Tinkle Jewels alongside her studies. Recognizing her passion and entrepreneurial drive, her college principal organized a stall for Sakshi on campus, enabling her to showcase her pieces to a wider audience. This opportunity opened doors for Sakshi, allowing her to gain even more support, orders, and a growing customer base. The early positive reception and demand for her jewellery led her to formally launch Tinkle Jewels in 2023.

A Vision of Tradition and Modernity

From its inception, Tinkle Jewels has focused on creating handmade jewellery that merges traditional Indian artistry with contemporary design. Sakshi’s pieces are a testament to the craftsmanship and cultural heritage of India, reimagined to appeal to modern tastes. Each item, crafted with precision and attention to detail, carries a piece of Indian tradition while incorporating elements of current fashion. This unique approach has helped Tinkle Jewels establish itself as a standout brand in the jewellery industry.

The brand story of Tinkle Jewels is deeply rooted in Sakshi's vision of creating something meaningful and beautiful. Her dedication to quality and authenticity resonates with customers who seek not just jewelry but a connection to Indian heritage. Through meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful design, Sakshi has built a brand that appeals to those who appreciate the fusion of tradition and innovation.

Empowerment Through Entrepreneurship

Beyond creating beautiful jewellery, Sakshi has a powerful vision for Tinkle Jewels that extends beyond her product line. At the core of Tinkle Jewels is a commitment to empowering women, especially those from underserved backgrounds. Recognizing the potential of her start-up to make a social impact, Sakshi set out to train and employ women in her community. Over time, she has trained more than 20 women in the art of handmade jewellery and currently employs over 10 artisans who contribute to Tinkle Jewels’ creations. This initiative not only equips these women with skills but also offers them a sustainable source of income and financial independence.

By fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment, Sakshi has created a business model that prioritizes sustainability and empowerment. For the women involved, Tinkle Jewels represents more than employment; it is a path to self-reliance, confidence, and respect in their communities. Through this socially responsible approach, Sakshi is building a brand that stands as a beacon of business entrepreneurship with a purpose.

A Growing Brand with Global Aspirations

As the brand grows, Sakshi is committed to maintaining the quality and authenticity that define Tinkle Jewels while exploring new markets and reaching a larger audience. Her global aspirations are grounded in a desire to share Indian artistry with the world, preserving its unique essence while adapting to diverse tastes and styles.

Sakshi’s journey from a high school student crafting jewellery for her mother to the entrepreneur behind a thriving jewellery brand exemplifies the power of passion, creativity, and purpose-driven business. Starting a start up like Tinkle Jewels required vision, resilience, and dedication, and Sakshi has demonstrated each of these qualities as she continues to grow her brand and make an impact.
