Ikrwala.

This is a neckpiece made of colorful beads, and silver jump rings. The neckpiece is manufactured with the use of a simple stringing of colorful beads technique. The design process was focused on the milestone (Ikrwala) I wanted to create a neckpiece that addresses the aspects of that milestone, the beads tell a story of a new attitude to the new colorful world. This neckpiece is deeply rooted in the notion of a new beginning. Ikrwala is a stage where a young man, who has just come of age in the form of initiation has to start his life afresh. The intricate chain mail design portrays the hard work and ups and downs he will experience, the combination of colorful beads tells of a life of opportunities, success, responsibilities, and his family.
