Behind the Sparkle: Meet the Karigars Who Make Your Jewelry

Behind the Sparkle: Meet the Karigars Who Make Your Jewelry

Every Kyza piece has a story and it doesn’t begin with a stone, a design, or a ring box.
It begins with a pair of hands.

Hands that carry decades of tradition.
Hands that cut, carve, polish, and perfect.
Hands that belong to Bengal’s finest karigars are the true soul behind our sparkle.

Real People, Real Craftsmanship

At our Kyza workshop in Bengal, the air hums with quiet concentration not machines. You’ll hear the gentle tap of tiny tools, the faint crackle of fire meeting metal, and the focused silence of artisans at work.

Why Handcrafted Will Always Be More Precious

Mass-produced jewellery may be fast, but it can never replace the soul.

When you wear a Kyza ring, you're not just wearing a beautiful design. You're wearing:

  • Hours of focused handwork
  • A connection to culture
  • And most importantly intention

Handcrafted jewellery feels different not just to the touch, but in the way it tells a story. Every piece is slightly unique. Every detail has been thought through. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is outsourced.

That’s slow luxury, and that’s what we stand for.

The Cultural Heart of Bengal’s Jewellery Legacy

West Bengal isn’t just home to incredible food and vibrant festivals, it's also one of India’s most respected hubs for fine jewellery craftsmanship. From the royal courts of Murshidabad to the gold bazaars of Kolkata, Bengal karigars have long been known for their:

  •  Fine filigree work

  •  Precision in stone setting

  •  Artisanal goldsmithing techniques

Traditional tools, modern masterpieces — Bengal’s karigars blend legacy with innovation.

And yet, many of these artisans remain behind the scenes quiet masters of their craft. At Kyza, we want to change that. We’re not just celebrating their work, we're putting their names back into the story.

Meet the Masters Behind Your Ring

 The faces behind your sparkle. Proud, skilled, and endlessly passionate.

From shaping delicate bezels to hand-polishing your band, every Kyza piece passes through the hands of at least five different artisans. Each brings their own skillset, energy, and pride into the process.
