Jewellery is more than an ornament. It is where craftsmanship, creativity and storytelling come together to create something timeless.

This philosophy defines the work of Sankesh Surana, an award-winning Indian jewellery designer and the co-founder of Sankesh Surana Studio at Jayanagar, Bangalore.

In 2026, his creative journey received a significant recognition as he was honoured with the Best Jewellery Designer of the Year 2026 award by JewelX, presented by Mr. Deepak Chhabra, Managing Director of Timex group India.

DESIGNING BEYOND THE ORDINARY

As a luxury jewellery designer, Sankesh Surana's design language brings together Indian heritage, nature, architecture and contemporary aesthetics. Rather than simply recreating traditional motifs, he explores their essence and transforms them into modern jewellery.

From bespoke jewellery to experimental techniques such as enamelling and new material innovations, his work is driven by one central idea: Great jewellery begins with an idea and eventually becomes a emotion that the wearer can carry forward.

This JewelX recognition celebrates this approach and marks another milestone in his journey as a Indian jewellery designer. Because the best jewellery is not only about what you see. It is about what you feel,remember and carry with you.
