Sangeeta Boochra speaks to JEWELBUZZ on her journey, inspiration, philosophy of defining the canons of style and harmony…. and more
Take us through your journey into jewellery designing: your inspiration, your beginnings, and your evolution into a renowned designer.
I was born in a small village in Rajasthan called as Sujangarh. Born in the family of entrepreneurs, my father was into petrochemicals business. I got married in the Boochra family in 1985 to Sudeep Boochra, in Jaipur. I am based out of Jaipur now. It was challenging when I got married and shifted to Jaipur–it was a very different culture all together, getting married into a powerful and influential family.
I am formally educated in the line of fashion designing, but found my true calling in the art of jewelry making. I personally love jewellery, especially silver jewellery. When I got married everything changed. And as it was lying deep within me – my love towards silver – hence I started designing. In 1994, I joined my father – in – law as jewellery designer and formed Sangeeta Boochra.



The journey has been great, learnt so much in life; I know the importance of money and hard work. I learn to respect artisans and master craftsman; to treat them equal as family.
What is your design philosophy?
I have a vision: ushering in a renaissance in the ancient art of jewellery, I use elements of ethnic Indian jewellery.
Behind every design is a philosophy expressing an aesthetic choice, defining the canons of style and harmony.` My designs truly do represent my contemporariness and projection of the past towards the future. My distinctive designs reflect her passion for jewelry and celebrate her enthusiasm for individualism with her commitment to timeless styling.
I have been creating silver jewellery with its very own chic language of design, with an added touch of modernity, giving a modern face to the age old traditional Indian jewellery.



Tell us about your favourite metals, materials and stones. Personally what type of metal- gold, silver, platinum, and stones—diamonds, colour gems — appeal to you.
I love silver; especially silver tribal- old and vintage looking. In gemstones I love turquoise, lapis, coral, emeralds and rubies.
As an entrepreneur, what are the lessons you have learnt in establishing a business, strategy for growth, brand positioning etc. How does one balance creativity with commercial viability and fluctuating consumer preferences.?
I have learnt many a lesson across my career. Some key learnings include:
Understand Your Audience, Quality Matters, Unique Selling Proposition (USP), Online Presence, Customer Service, Adaptability, Financial Management, Networking,
Strategies for Growth include: Diversification, Collaborations, International Expansion and Data-Driven Decisions



While Balancing Creativity with Commercial Viability give weightage to:Market Research, Customer Feedback, Prototyping and Testing, Staying Authentic, Flexibility.
Establishing and growing a jewelry business requires a combination of creativity, business acumen, and adaptability. By stayingattuned to customer preferences, maintaining quality standards, and embracing innovation, you can build a successful and sustainable brand in the competitive jewelry industry.
Your comments on the current jewellery designing segment in India? What is the standing and brand positioning of India’s jewellery designers on the global stage?
The jewellery designing segment in India has been vibrant and diverse, combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary designs. India has a rich cultural heritage, and this is often reflected in the intricate and artistic designs of its jewellery. The industry includes a mix of traditional jewellery, modern designs, and pieces that blend both elements.
The standing and brand positioning on the global stage is driven by: Heritage and Craftsmanship, Innovation and Fusion, Ethical and Sustainable Practices, Global Recognition, Diverse Offerings, E-commerce Presence, Celebrity Endorsements, Government Initiatives



What’s your message for aspiring, as well as practicing, jewellery designers?
Aspiring and practicing jewellery designers need to adopt the following: Embrace Creativity, Stay Informed, Craftsmanship Matters, Build a Strong Brand Identity,Adaptability,Network and Collaborate, Ethical and Sustainable Practices, Understand Your Audience, Online Presence is Crucial, Feedback is Valuable, Balance Creativity with Commercial Viability, Persistence and Resilience, Passion is Your Driving Force. Remember that each designer’s journey is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all formula for success. Be true to your vision, stay dedicated to your craft, and enjoy the creative process.
