JS Noor

Beauty written in the wind

The Hindi word for tomorrow is the same as the word for yesterday – a reflection of how the culture understands people, time and the cycle of life. The free-form nature of the jewelry by JS Noor reflects the Indian and Tibetan view that we are not only born but also reborn.

Jehangir Singh Noor, the creative genius of JS Noor, designs that inspire the wearer’s ongoing growth or rebirth with jewelry infused with mystical qualities. As a child, he says, “it was the art of the Tibetans that excited me, but now it’s the Buddhist philosophy and its spiritual mysticism that is the inspiration to create these pieces.”

The “Hawa” design is his signature, taken from the word for wind and inspired by the Palace of Wind in India. The screen windows on the palace are like the circles in the earrings – lightweight comfortable earrings that move with the wind.
