Sabyasachi Jewellery X Neiman Marcus Chicago: Indian Artistry Meets American Luxury
This spring, the Windy City witnessed a dazzling new chapter in global luxury as Sabyasachi Jewellery unveiled an exclusive high jewelry residency at Neiman Marcus Chicago. Marking the revered Indian house’s 25th anniversary, this collaboration is more than a showcase-it’s a celebration of heritage, craftsmanship, and cross-continental storytelling, bringing the romance of Bengal to the heart of Michigan Avenue.
A Residency Rooted in Legacy
Following a celebrated debut in San Francisco, Sabyasachi’s partnership with Neiman Marcus continues in Chicago, introducing discerning American collectors to the brand’s most iconic design languages. The installation, housed on Level One of the flagship store, is a curated treasure trove of Sabyasachi’s High Jewellery-each piece a testament to the goldsmithing traditions of North Calcutta, reimagined for a global audience.
Sabyasachi Mukherjee, the visionary behind the house, describes this residency as “the first of many across the United States, bringing the best of Indian craftsmanship and design to discerning clients.” The Chicago residency is not just a retail experience but a cultural exchange, where the finery of India’s ateliers meets the cosmopolitan pulse of American luxury retail.
The Collections: Bengal Royale & Beyond
At the heart of the Chicago showcase are pieces from Sabyasachi’s celebrated Bengal Royale and Bengal Byzantine Broadway collections. These designs pay homage to the opulence of Bengal’s royal courts and the intricate artistry of its master craftsmen. Statement earrings in 18k gold, set with morganites and brilliant-cut EF VVS VS diamonds, sit alongside necklaces and cuffs that blend old-world grandeur with modern sophistication.
Every jewel is meticulously handcrafted, echoing the house’s reverence for traditional techniques-kundan, meenakari, and filigree-while embracing bold, contemporary silhouettes. The result is a collection that feels both timeless and utterly of the moment, designed to be worn as heirlooms and conversation starters alike.
A Meeting of Worlds
For Neiman Marcus, this collaboration is a powerful expression of shared values: creativity, heritage, and an unwavering appreciation for artistry at the highest level. “This partnership with Sabyasachi reflects the best of what Neiman Marcus has to offer-extraordinary access to global visionaries and exceptional design,” says Tatiana Birkelund, VP of beauty, jewelry, and home at Neiman Marcus.
The residency opened with a personal appearance by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, who welcomed Chicago’s most influential clients and tastemakers, offering a rare opportunity to experience the house’s storytelling and design philosophy firsthand.
