Anukriti Jalan’s journey into the world of jewellery design began in her childhood. As a young girl, she frequently accompanied her mother to local jeweller’s, where she observed the meticulous process of customizing jewellery. This early exposure ignited a fascination that evolved into a profound passion for jewellery design and creation. With a decade of experience and a Diploma in Jewellery Design from the prestigious Gemmological Institute of America (GIA), Anukriti founded Akoya.

Akoya quickly gained a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship, customer excellence, and meticulous attention to detail. Anukriti introduced pastel-coloured jewellery to Hyderabad’s traditional heavy gold market, setting new trends and overcoming resistance from conventional jeweller’s. Her dedication and innovative designs have consistently pushed the boundaries of contemporary elegance.

Over the past decade, Anukriti has tirelessly built Akoya into a brand synonymous with quality and style. She is dedicated to creating unique, custom pieces, transforming raw gemstones and uncut diamonds into masterpieces. Each design radiates beauty, especially when worn by clients. At Akoya’s core is a commitment to client inspiration, driving the brand’s continuous evolution.
