Manifest Design

“Manifest Design is proud to present its collection of Contemporary Sculptural Jewelry that is a mélange of Art, Fashion and everything handmade !
We create timeless pieces that are thoughtfully handcrafted and possess a soul that transcends style and cultural boundaries.
We hope our Jewelry is collected and shared as mementos that infuse inspirations and rekindle forgotten dreams.”

Established in the fall of 2013, Manifest Design is the dream project of siblings Manreet & Samraat Deol that has been many years in the making.
They set out to create a company that would make authentic meaningful Design that was committed to revitalizing the traditional metalsmithing traditions of India through the creation of their contemporary Accessories.

“Everyday Wearable Art’ is the guiding style mantra behind these gorgeous handmade ornaments whose inspirations are varied and eccentric - Gnarled corals, sensuous vines, bold rock sculptures, urban art all somehow influence a unique visual vocabulary that is at once familiar and also unexpected.
The indelible touch of the Sculptor and the metal-smith are intrinsic to the pieces and add an additional layer of intrigue and warmth that truly make the Manifest Design ( MD) pieces unique.

Following in the steps of the great Masters, each MD design begins as a clay sculpture that is then expertly cast in reclaimed brass and aluminum using the ancient metallurgy technique of Sand Casting.
It’s a time consuming process in which skilled craftsmen painstakingly create a new sand mold for each and every piece. Hot metal is hand poured in these and allowed to cool before the sand mold is broken apart to reveal the piece. These one of a kind objects are then individually sanded and polished to reveal the finished Jewel.
This low impact manufacturing technique is ideal for these textural pieces as it captures the softness of the Jewelry while adding a beautiful delicate sandy texture. The uniqueness of the collection is further accentuated through the celebration of the little dents and nicks that are signs of an entirely handcrafted product.

This Artisnal collection is crafted all over India while the companies Design studio and e-commerce office are based in Pondicherry and Pune respectively.
The company ships worldwide through its online store and just made its US retail debut in the fall of 2014 at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City.
