The house
Most houses have a single spine.NIMAI has a hundred and fifty —one for every pair of handsthat makes for us.
Guest ateliers and in-house labels, gathered under one roof in Khan Market. We do not manufacture. We convene.
The collection
Four rooms of adornment
Each room holds work from a dozen different hands. Start anywhere.
The Stack Bar
Charm it. Stack it. Tell your story.
Five hundred charms, one field. Wander it, pick the ones that mean something, and watch them string themselves onto a thread.
The first NIMAI
Every collection begins somewhere
Small pieces, made by the same hands as the large ones. This is where most people start.
The occasion
The Wedding Edit
For the sangeet, the pheras, and the morning after — pieces made to outlast the album.

Not only gold. The collective works in whatever holds the idea best.
In their words
What people say
The box came tied in red thread. I kept the thread on my wrist for a month and the earrings on for longer.
