Ace designer Pavan Anand’s unique perspective on jewellery is influenced by his background in architecture. With a trained eye for structure, balance, and aesthetics, Pavan approaches jewellery creation with a keen sense of form and composition.
In his latest collection Abduction, a captivating narrative unfolds, which revolves around a fantasy realm. Pavan pushes the boundaries of design by integrating elements of sophisticated fluidity, catering to those with an adventurous spirit and a penchant for the extraordinary. Through “Abduction,” Pavan Anand invites us to surrender to the allure of his jewellery, and embrace the transformative power of art.
The unorthodox collection, ‘Abduction by Pavan Anand Fine Jewels – Seeing strength in the Dragon’, fuses artistic ingenuity within a world of fantasy. Dragons are a symbol of seduction, strength, change and inner possession, and the collection showcases the ever-evolving motif in multitude ways. It’s exotic, dramatic and commanding, just like the wearer who adorns it.
The unconventional collection is a nod to Eastern design influences, steeped in mystery and immortalised in creations for a select few.
The Abduction line is further divided into four sub-themes: Amun Ra, Envy, Fire, and Seduced.
Amun Ra
The reverence for Amun Ra, the legendary Egyptian God of the Sun, has never faded but only strengthened with time. A collector’s delight, the architectural earrings wind themselves around and nestle behind the ears to bare only certain elements – as if unearthing a myth.
Envy
This profound human emotion is felt by all and sundry, cleverly disguised as praise towards the other. Personifying envy, this piece is the embodiment of ‘green with envy’.
Green Gold commands attention and envy in this curvaceous brooch crafted in 18-karat yellow gold, green gold, and enhanced with Fancy Vivid Intense Yellow Canary diamonds, white diamonds and Burmese rubies.
Fire
Of the four Aristotelian elements, fire is the only one that man can create – this gift of fire to mankind represents the kinship between mortals and the Gods. Pavan Anand’s Fire is an eternal flame symbolizing illumination, protection and purification, juxtaposed with the mighty dragon – an empowering source of positive energy.
It is this universal energy that makes it the pièce de resistance of the collection. Blazingly beautiful, the earring is crafted in 18-karat gold, and set with flawless white diamonds, Fancy Vivid Intense Yellow Canary diamonds, emeralds and rubies.
Seduced
The lure of social media is but a fatal attraction and its tempting nature presents a false ideal. It captivates and ensnares minds into a hollow abyss of filtered reality. This vortex of distortion is very much like having one wrapped around their little finger – the world within our screens is endlessly enchanting. This striking piece, a symbol of seduction, glamour and unrivalled beauty, is crafted in 18-karat yellow gold, flawless white diamonds and a 7-carat rare fancy colour cognac diamond.
