Collection: Sikara & Co. - Jewelry
THE SIKARA STORY - Mousumi Shaw
The name Sikara is inspired from the Indian word, Shikara, which means houseboat. It symbolizes the journey we take in life, which results in a fusion of experiences. As a teenager, founder Mousumi Shaw helped her mother, an immigrant from India, start up her own jewelry company in the United States. Fourteen years later in 2005, Mousumi decided to launch Sikara, which incorporates her passions for art, jewelry and other cultures.She travels the world, working with her team of inspirational designers to create collections based on her experiences and travel photography from different countries. Through these international collections, Mousumi takes you on a voyage, sharing the culture and history of each country.
Sikara is Modern Fusion Jewelry and is a reflection of Mousumi’s life as a first generation Indian-American. Although her ancestral roots are from India, she has been influenced by a multicultural world. Her travel and life experiences in over fifty countries have become engrained in her personality, her sense of style and the design of Sikara.
“Fusion” represents our lives in today’s world. It is a blend of our past heritage and a new modern spirit. Sikara speaks to this fusion. As you’ll see in this catalog, Sikara’s sterling silver jewelry collection is elegant, unique and a fusion of style. The current design line includes designs inspired from ten countries: Brazil, Egypt, Germany, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Mexico and Spain.
