Silver by Temptations displays three collections that range from Indian to Chinese in design inspiration.

For the launch of Silver by Temptations, Panjwani introduced three collections that range from Indian to Chinese in design inspiration.

The Imperial Dragon Collection is a series of intricately embellished teapots that celebrate the strength and grace of the Chinese dragon.

The Royal Maharaja Collection contains statues and home decor items derived from the best specimens found in ancient Raj palaces.

And The Luxury Silverware Collection is a range of solid silver products with modern classic aesthetics.

"All are handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces. Some are decorated generously with semiprecious stones such as rubies, emeralds and jade," Panjwani says.

"Our gems come from my wife's company, Temptations."

He explains that to obtain jewelry-grade gems, a large rock needs to be worked to get that perfect nugget. But the rest of the rock is still a semiprecious stone, and its pieces are used for decorative purposes.

"Our pieces take four to six months to produce, all by hand," Panjwani says.

"Some can be made more quickly, while others may take up to a year. We usually use one artisan per piece, or various pieces may be compiled."
