Meet the Artisans: How Our Jewelry Is Handcrafted with Care

At Gem & Hue, every piece of jewelry tells a story—a story of craftsmanship, tradition, and a deep commitment to quality. Behind each delicate pendant and shimmering pair of earrings is the skill and dedication of our artisans, who bring our designs to life with passion and precision. Today, we’d like to introduce you to three of these talented individuals: Dori Lal, Vasu Dev, and Rakesh.

Dori Lal: The Master of Detail

Dori Lal has been working with precious metals and stones for over three decades. Growing up in a family of jewelers, Dori Lal’s passion for the craft was ignited at a young age. He specializes in intricate detailing, ensuring that every tiny facet of a gemstone or curve of a band is perfect.

When you wear one of our minimalist necklaces, you’re wearing hours of careful work by Dori Lal, who meticulously inspects each piece for quality. His dedication to his craft ensures that every necklace, ring, and earring meets the high standards we set at Gem & Hue. “Jewelry is more than an accessory,” Dori Lal says. “It’s a piece of art that carries a part of the artisan with it.”

Vasu Dev: The Keeper of Tradition

Vasu Dev, with his quiet demeanor and steady hands, is the guardian of traditional jewelry-making techniques in our team. For over 25 years, he has honed his skills, blending time-honored methods with contemporary designs.

Vasu Dev’s specialty lies in crafting our eternity and bold bands, where precision and patience are key. The balance he strikes between tradition and innovation is what makes our pieces unique—each band is a testament to the legacy of craftsmanship passed down through generations. “To me,” Vasu Dev shares, “jewelry is about preserving the past while creating something new for the future.”

Rakesh: The Rising Star

The youngest of our artisans, Rakesh is a craftsman with a vision. With 10 years of experience, he’s already known for his exceptional skill and creativity. Rakesh is not just following in the footsteps of his elders—he’s carving his own path by bringing fresh perspectives to our designs.

Rakesh’s work is particularly evident in our more modern pieces, where clean lines and minimalist elegance define the style. He approaches each project with enthusiasm, eager to learn and grow. “I want to create jewelry that’s as dynamic as the women who wear it,” Rakesh says. “Pieces that are timeless yet modern, simple yet full of character.”

Craftsmanship Meets Care

What unites these three artisans is not just their skill, but their dedication to crafting jewelry with care. At Gem & Hue, we believe in creating pieces that reflect the integrity of our processes—from sourcing materials to the final polish. Every piece of jewelry is a labor of love, handcrafted by artisans who take pride in their work.

This commitment to craftsmanship means that when you purchase a piece of jewelry from Gem & Hue, you’re not just buying a product; you’re becoming a part of a tradition of quality and care. Our artisans pour their heart and soul into every piece, ensuring it meets the highest standards of excellence.
