Padma Padam began in 2016, and is the creation of Sylvie Anand. Throughout worldwide travels, over the years, she began sourcing and collecting original unusual jewellery, and so the journey began. Inspiration came from many places, and peoples, but especially India, that magical ancient land. 

Jewellery has been loved and cherished for thousands of years, the earliest jewellery was dated around 25,000 years ago. In early societies, jewellery was worn to protect against bad luck and illness, and worn for its magical properties. It was made into symbols, believed to bring fertility, wealth and love. Jewellery came to represent wealth and power, and to mean human connection and commitment. It has always been symbolic, and beautifying.  And so the fascination of adornment, and love of wearing precious metals, gold, silver, and gems has been an ancient and modern obsession, worldwide, throughout the ages, through countless trends and cultural fashions, people have coveted beautiful things. 

We at Padma Padam share that fascination, love and obsession, always searching for different and special pieces, Padma Padam brings you diverse styles of jewellery, from Minimalist, to bold chunky, from elegant timeless to statement chic.
