The Designer

 

Based in San Francisco, Goldstories is the culmination of designer Subikksha Balaje’s lifelong love of fine jewelry that is meant to be appreciated for its details. 

 

 Subikksha’s obsession with jewelry and its design comes from the women in her life. Her mother is an artist who taught her how to sketch designs and her grandmother collected and wore fine pieces throughout her life. Each of her grandmother’s pieces has a story that she was reminded of whenever her grandmother wore or gifted an item. Now, when Subikksha conceptualizes new collections that are often inspired by her, she shares her sketches with her mother whose eye for detail is remarkable.

 

Much like her grandmother acquired jewelry on her travels, Subikksha has relied on her exposure to global cultures and traditions to draw her design inspiration. An homage to craftsmanship that is meant to keep human stories alive, her designs are both affordable and beautiful, as well as made with consciously-sourced materials.

 

Inspired by Heritage 

Born in San Francisco, Goldstories is the culmination of designer Subikksha Balaje’s lifelong love of fine jewelry with a story.

“My obsession with jewelry began with the women in my life. My mother has an eye for design and was always sketching, and I like to think I inherited a bit of her talent. I still show her my designs to this day. My grandmothers were both fine jewelry collectors. They called every new necklace or bracelet they bought ‘savings,’ which I loved. Each piece they owned told a story of a different time and place in their lives. Together, these women inspired me to create what is Goldstories.” 

Subikksha’s exposure to global cultures and traditions is imbued into every new collection. An homage to craftsmanship and heritage, each piece is ready to carry on your story.
