Meet the Artist: Shanker Shanker comes from a farming background and was expected to work with his parents as a family tradition. Inspired by his maternal uncle's work as a jeweler, Shanker quit farming and started designing and crafting sterling silver jewelry. He faced challenges in promoting handmade products, as people in his village preferred gold. With the help of family and friends, Shanker was able to establish himself in the field.
