Life is full of Firsts. We want to be a part of yours.

First is built on the belief that every moment deserves to be celebrated. As we move through the world, we forget to commemorate the time that’s passing and reflect on everything we’ve created.

Our jewelry is driven by a love for art, movement, and celebration. Drawing inspiration from history, our Indian heritage, and a love for life we’re curating a collection of jewels you want to wear. It’s the jewelry we always wished we could wear… and could never find.

You never forget your First.
