Commenting on the designs, -Sharat Sharma, designer, Tanishq Design Studio said " The Victorian styling in the Colors of Royalty range has been brought to life through use of sensuous curves, balance, rhythm and symmetry of the classic motifs in an unconventional manner. Rubies and emeralds have been sprinkled with diamonds to create a grand and unmatched symphony. While these precious stones enhance the look of the diamonds, they also add a dash of color by breathing life in otherwise conventional designs."
