My designs tend to be simple and bold with special attention to line, form, colour and space. I design collections on special themes so that each piece has some interesting underlying concept or a story to tell. Each piece is crafted with utmost care for detail, finish and precision.

- Priti Bhatia, Owner, Awesome Sparklers by Priti Bhatia, Well known jewellery designer from Surat


I did the jewellery designing professional course with Sonali in 2004. I was not from a jewellery background and had just completed diamond assortment course out of curiosity and since I was artistically inclined always , I decided to give jewellery designing a shot.

It is a well designed programme for people with no jewellery background as well as people related to the industry who either want to become a designer or even open a showroom.

The programme introduces you to all aspects required for designing and understanding jewellery. Obviously the programme is quite demanding . you really have to put in the hours of benefit from it . One should be prepared for that.

Sonali as everyone knows is an accomplished designer and has wonderful lines of jewellery to her credit. As a teacher very patient and always there to help and guide. Also because of her desire to continuously learn, her courses evolve too , to keep up with the times and industry requirement.
