If your designs could speak, what would they say?

We are driven by a passion to design premium, high-fashion sustainable jewellery and make it more accessible to people who follow their own passion in life. We craft bespoke, permanent, and designer pieces. Each piece is designed to find beauty in imperfections– raw organic designs that are intentionally textured and unpolished. We make wearable art, high-fashion designs & sustainable premium metal jewellery more accessible.

What are the signature elements in your designs?

Like every person, Arvino, the brand, has many layers to it. To be universally appealing yet singular in its design aesthetic, to appeal to individual tastes yet be suitable for every lifestyle, to be as distinct as wearable art yet be appropriate for everyday wear—this is what makes Arvino unique. We believe in the beauty of purposeful imperfections, where jewellery transcends mere adornment to celebrate individuality, with textures and design principles as exceptional as the people who wear them. Arvino celebrates and helps you express yourself—what makes you feel confident, what brings you joy and most importantly, what makes you, you. So go ahead and flaunt your love for layers—from the layers of your jewellery to the unique layers of your personality.

Alia Bhatt,

Which collection are you most proud of, and why?

I'm most proud of our PRATAPGARI collection, a tribute woven from the threads of personal and historical legacy. The collection sprang from a promise I, Arvind Agarwal made to his mother—to gift her the finest gold jewellery she had always dreamed of. PRATAPGARI captures the spirit of Pratapgarh, my hometown, renowned for its rich history and valiant battles. Each piece in this collection tells a story of courage and tradition, blending sustainable craftsmanship with the profound cultural legacy of a village close to my heart.

Where do you find inspiration for your designs?

I’m most inspired by nature and the diverse metals it offers, which fuel my creativity and exploration in design. Traveling and experiencing different cultures also deeply influence my work. While I draw on various sources. My most cherished Pratapgari Collection is inspired by the stories etched into the walls of the majestic Pratapgarh Fort, with each piece reflecting the spirit of the battles fought and the victories earned. The intricate designs and regal aesthetics of our jewellery encapsulate the essence of Pratapgarh, capturing the courage, honor, and indomitable strength that echo through its storied past.

Which designer in the world inspires you?

Designer David Yurman’s innovative use of materials and timeless elegance has particularly inspired me, guiding my approach to incorporating nature’s beauty in my design.

Share a memorable "aha" moment from your design career.

A memorable "aha" moment in my design career was creating the PRATAPGARI collection. As I crafted pieces inspired by my hometown of Pratapgarh, I realized how deeply personal and meaningful this work was. My parents always held Pratapgarh close to their hearts, and infusing that love and heritage into our jewellery was profoundly rewarding. It felt like I was honoring my family's roots while sharing a piece of our story with the world.
