The Gold Market: The Story Behind This Necklace

I found this piece in Old Delhi's jewelry market, in lanes so narrow two people must turn sideways to pass.

Behind smudged glass in Chandni Chowk, craftsmen sat cross-legged, working gold under single bulbs. Outside, the streets roared with chaos. Inside these tiny workshops, only the quiet tap-tap-tap of metal becoming art.

The necklace echoes what I witnessed: Indian goldwork techniques, slice diamonds for how light fell in crowded lanes, beauty that refuses to be rushed.

I wear it and remember: some things are worth doing slowly, with hands that know their craft.
