Rishita Chingangbam of P-Thadoi gives new life to discarded scrap through her attractive and eminently wearable jewelry.
What made you opt for jewelry design?
RC: I studied in Imphal till the 12th standard and decided that I wanted to be a jewelry designer. I studied for a year at the Polytechnic for Women in New Delhi, and then moved to Pune where I studied software related jewelry designing. I have a Diploma in Jewelry Designing from SATEJ, The School for Art and Technical Education in Jewelry. I moved back to Imphal, where I started my own jewelry brand called ‘P-Thadoi’.
