About IKYA
From HR to Handcrafted – The Story Behind IKYA
IKYA's story is deeply personal. After years in corporate HR, and especially after welcoming my baby, I felt a strong desire to create something of my own, something that truly reflected my passion.
This led to a bold leap: from the structured corporate world to the soulful art of handcrafted jewelry. Founded by a former HR professional turned entrepreneur and mom, IKYA is a homegrown imitation jewelry brand that beautifully blends passion, purpose, and style.
Our Mission
To create thoughtfully designed jewelry that brings luxury, quality, and affordability together — offering timeless pieces for every style and moment.
Our Vision
To build an inclusive and trusted platform for imitation jewelry, offering top-quality, statement, and unique pieces that cater to every style and every individual.
At IKYA, we believe in celebrating personality through jewelry — empowering bold choices and everyday elegance alike.
Meet the Founder
Hi, I’m Rashmitha — the heart behind IKYA. After 7+ years in corporate HR, I took a leap of faith post-motherhood to follow my passion for fashion and jewelry. IKYA is more than a brand and it’s my story, my dream, and my way of connecting with others through the art of styling.
With every piece you choose, you carry a part of this journey. Thank you for supporting a homegrown dream that’s crafted for the bold — just like you.
