Walk like an Egyptian and Dress like one too!

The last one year has been a rollercoaster ride for us at MirrorWhite! Running a new business and growing organically means wearing multiple hats at the same time. It’s an exciting period but also stressful at the same time. You need to meet you sales, manage your expenses, do your marketing, develop new product lines, and so on and so forth. It’s always a never ending list of tasks! In the bargain, I have learnt a lot and Thanks to the support of friends and family, we have come a long way since we started in June 2014.

Today, it’s a good feeling to see one of our first luxury collection getting noticed in social media and getting the kind of appreciation we never expected. Yes, we are talking about our Egyptian Collection. We spent days and months developing this line of jewellery, from the concept, to the designs, to the colors, to sourcing the stones, to manufacturing, and finally to see the finished piece in your hand is the best feeling in the world.

Egyptian Collection – in the making

It started with a concept as simple as taking inspiration from Egypt and we built on that to bring to you something beautiful, unique – something that if worn will make a style statement. We wanted to fuse together western and Indian, so it can be matched beautifully with both types of clothing. Why should jewellery always be restrictive? Shouldn’t we be able to style it with whatever kind of clothing we wear?

Another exciting thing that came about with this new launch was our photoshoot by Supriya Suryanarayanan in Bangalore. It was so much fun to do our first ever photo shoot and she managed to capture the jewellery so beautifully that all of effort and time put in just made sense in the end! Oh and we also ran a fun contest on what you like about Egypt and gave away a gift voucher from MirrorWhite worth Rs. 5000 on Social Media! We also had a winner, Nazia!

Today, in this overcrowded market place, consumers have a 100 choices to look for but we at MirrorWhite hope that you enjoy what we are bringing to you. We are learning along the way but our motto remains the same, we want to bring to you, unique – one of a kind – handmade silver jewellery that is wearable, fun, stylish yet not over the top. We want you to feel special when you wear it! We want you to remember us and the effort that has been put into making each piece of jewellery by our artisans across India. We are excited to be a part of this journey and will be bringing to you more such collections in the future!

Our Model, Shweta looked lovely in these earrings! The best part, the photographs were taken in broad sunlight with no makeup on her. Just the natural look, which I feel brings out the beauty in a person!

What should I gift my sister this Rakhi?

Rakhi is round the corner and I am sure all of us, sisters are scouting around for the best Rakhi and brothers are wondering what to gift their beloved sister. It’s so amazing to see how sisters and brothers are trying their best to find something different, something special that will bring a smile to the other. Just yesterday, I was at an event in Bangalore where we displayed some of our Silver Rakhi’s. It was a two day event, and one girl came by the stall the first day and liked a Rakhi we had made with semi-precious stones and silver beads. She decided to take a day to think and came back yesterday and picked up one for her brother. She said, she loves giving her brother rakhi’s that are unique and her brother has actually preserved them for over 15 years. Isn’t that amazing? Why gift your brother a boring Rakhi when you can give them something unique that will actually treasure. We at MirrorWhite have launched a simple yet fancy range of Rakhi’s for your brother. and for all the brothers out there, we have some amazing handmade silver jewellery, funky or traditional, simple or flashy, we have something for all of your sisters. What’s so special about gifting MirrorWhite jewellery.

Well, all our jewellery is handmade by artisans from around the country and south-east asia. Each piece has been designed keeping in mind the quality, design, and uniqueness. It also comes in a small little box with a lovely pouch. If you would like, we can also write a special note for your brother or sister.

We all love our siblings so much, so go on show them some love and gift them something priceless from MirrorWhite!
