The course gives you basic information on the different kinds of stones, colour schemes in jewellery, design themes, presentation and framing, designing individual jewellery pieces, men's jewellery, costume jewellery, jewellery costing, etc.

Work ambience

Work ambience varies with the kind of raw materials used. Accessory designers work with leather, furs and other tough and expensive materials. Jewellery designers work with gold, silver, diamonds and other precious metals and gems. Their place of work is planned to suit the nature of work. Research involves a bit of travelling.

Personal assets

Accessory and jewellery designers need to be exceptionally creative, observant, cognizant of the latest fashion trends. They need to work with extreme subtlety and finesse. A highly cautious and meticulous approach is required, for they work with very expensive and precious materials.

Courses and institutes

Job prospects

Accessory designers are trained as stylists for men's, women’s or children's accessories. They specialise in leather designing/ jewellery designing, etc.

After carrying out detailed research about the accessory they are required to work on, designers create new and attractive designs for their clients. In the traditional, studio-based design sector, crafts people work to prepare each article individually. Their work is sold through local outlets, at tourist destinations, emporia and through craft melas.

Jewellery designers create new designs for gold, silver and precious metal jewellery. Large exporters employ designers or select designs from eminent freelancers.

Gemmologists are experts in assessing the quality, value and use of gems for jewellery. They are experts in grading, sorting and setting of gems in various metals.

Jewellery designers prepare sketches—by hand or on the computer—to conceptualise the design according to the customer demands. After consulting with the customer or the manufacturing team, designers work accordingly, keeping in view the latest trends. The use of computer aided design (CAD/CAM) programmes and tools are made generally to create and better visualise the final product.

Computer models allow greater ease and flexibility in exploring a number of design alternatives, thus reducing design costs and cutting the time it takes to deliver a product to market.

The various career options in different sectors are:

Jewellery designing house

Export house

Fashion house

Self-employment

Freelance designing

An export house can help you reach a global market through your designs. Most of you can start your own business by setting up a production house. You can even sell your products and designs under your own brand name. As a freelance designer you draw a design according to the specifications of the jewellers' house.
