Aakriti Silver Creations

We’ve been here at 172 New Jawahar Nagar for a while now. It’s just a basic shop where we do silver work. Most days it’s pretty quiet in this part of New Jawahar Nagar. We started Aakriti Silver Creations because we wanted to stay busy with our hands. It’s not some big company with managers. Usually, there’s just a couple of us around. Sometimes the light isn't great in the back, but we get by. We make things out of silver, mostly small stuff people might like. People sometimes struggle to find 172 because the numbers on the street are a bit messy. If you see the big tree, you're close. We don't have a fancy lobby or anything like that. Just a bench and some tools. The floor is concrete and it gets cold in the winter. We spend most of our mornings drinking tea and looking at what needs finishing. It’s honest work, even if it’s slow. We don’t really do much advertising. Most people just walk in because they live nearby. We keep the doors open when the weather is nice. Sometimes the neighbor's dog comes in. We like being part of the neighborhood here. New Jawahar Nagar is a decent place to be. It’s not too noisy. We just keep our heads down and keep working on the silver. That’s pretty much the whole story of what happens here every day at Aakriti Silver Creations. It's not complicated and we like it that way.
