“I need colours! This will change my mood!” ❤️
When Nupur Sethi, a brand patron of Swadhin, heard about our collaboration with Corvee, a brand creating beautiful handmade fabric jewellery, she knew exactly what she wanted to take back to California — handmade gifts for her colleagues.
One of them was Edith.
Edith walked into her office dressed head-to-toe in black. Nupur noticed and asked, “I’ve never seen you in all black. Is everything okay?”
Her reply: “Nothing is right.”
A little later, Nupur walked into her office with a Swadhin box.
Edith opened it and, with a completely different energy, said:
“I need colours! This will change my mood!” 🌈
And that stayed with us.
Because these pieces of handmade jewellery are not just aesthetic. They carry colour, creativity and joy — and sometimes, they can change how someone feels.
And behind every colourful piece are talented women whose hands, skills and creativity made that moment possible.
Thank you, Edith, for reminding us of the power of what our women create. And thank you, Nupur, for carrying their work all the way from India to California. 🙏🏾❤️
