ORRA, the famed diamond jewellery brand was honoured with the title of the “Best Platinum Jewellery of the Year Award” at the Retail Jeweller Awards 2013. ORRA’s award winning platinum design is the first of its kind that applied the art of paper quilling in jewellery design form. The jewellery piece entitled ‘Sands of Time’ highlights the pliability of platinum to craft such a piece inspired by sand dunes in nature. It reflects the appeal of a sea of sand with sparkling water flowing in between in the form of diamonds.

The choice of metal enables creating the unique design applying quilling, an attempt which has not been experimented in metal before. The platinum French bangle has different diamond shapes in prong setting in between rows of fine quilling on either side. The design theme is an exotic blend of the ancient and modern world with much refinement and reconstruction. The piece captures textures in a contemporary way, while maintaining the classic edge of platinum.

Mr. Vijay Jain, CEO, ORRA says, “This recognition of the ‘2013 Best Platinum Design Award’ for a breathtaking platinum creation, brings further accolades for the brand and yet again proves that innovation and craftsmanship is the key to success. The elegant platinum French bangle is a perfect paradigm of platinum’s remarkable qualities. Working with an eternal and versatile metal like platinum, allows craftsmen to explore innovative design themes, making the metal an ideal choice for jewelers. ORRA pieces are carefully monitored to ensure that the final outcome is a blend of design perfection and highly skilled craftsmanship and we cater to today’s consumer with our contemporary jewellery designs.”
