New Delhi, 21 March 2025 – Manual by Aadhya Aggarwal proudly announces the launch of its latest collection unveils Lumière sur Toile (Light on Canvas), an exquisite high jewellery collection where gemstones transcend mere ornamentation to become pure artistry. Inspired by the luminous interplay of light and color in masterful paintings, each piece is an evocative composition of vivid gemstones and radiant diamonds—capturing ephemeral beauty with eternal brilliance.

Like an artist layering pigments to create depth and movement, Lumière sur Toile layers light and color to craft wearable masterpieces. The rubies burn with the intensity of fiery vermillion, emeralds echo the rich landscapes of Renaissance artistry, sapphires hold the midnight blues of celestial skies, and tanzanites shimmer like a violet dusk settling over an Impressionist reverie. At the heart of this collection, rose-cut diamonds mirror the translucent glow of aged oil paint, diffusing light in a poetic whisper of brilliance.

Each jewel is framed with intention—some settings reminiscent of ornate gilded frames from a Baroque salon, others as minimal and modern as a contemporary gallery space. Every creation within Lumière sur Toile is designed to be more than an accessory; it is an heirloom of emotion, artistry, and light.

“Light is our muse, subject, and medium in this collection. We have harnessed its ethereal nature to create pieces that do not simply reflect brilliance but embody it—just as a painting captures a fleeting moment of beauty and transforms it into something eternal,” says Aadhya Aggarwal, Founder and Creative Director, Manaal Fine Jewellery.

As light dances across the faceted surfaces of these masterpieces, each jewel becomes a stroke of radiance, an echo of artistry, a fragment of an eternal painting suspended in time. Each exquisite piece is meticulously handcrafted, requiring approximately 150 hours of skilled craftsmanship to bring it to life.

March 21,2025:Your ingenious drawer concepts are only a box system away from morphing into something extraordinary. But this could not happen with any box system. Your creative design ideas demand drawer systems that are one-stop solutions offering reliable features, meeting high-quality benchmarks, and sporting a critically acclaimed design. Blum’s TANDEMBOX antaro has it all and more with a minimalist design through and through, gliding action as light as a feather, a quality standard that exceeds international standards, and a runner system proven over a million times.

 Let’s explore what distinguishes Blum’s TANDEMBOX antaro as one of the premier drawer systems for designing drawers throughout different living spaces.

 The minimalist design with clean lines offers a timeless appeal.

One defining characteristic of TANDEMBOX antaro is its all-around minimal design with clean lines, clear-cut aesthetics, concealed runners, a rectangular gallery, and a sleek colour scheme. Even the nylon elements of the box system harmonise with the overarching minimal theme for a seamless appeal. Therefore, when you design drawers with TANDEMBOX antaro, you can count on aesthetics that are second to none.

 An impressive feather-light glide with load-bearing capacities of 30 and 65 kg

The time-tested and full-extension cabinet profile of the TANDEMBOX antaro includes low-friction cylindrical nylon runners that keep the gliding motion on this box system feather-light. These nylon runners distribute the weight evenly to ensure top-quality motion and uphold a weight-bearing capacity of 30 and 65 kg.

 A host of design possibilities for diverse living space requirements

Beyond its attractive streamlined design, the TANDEMBOX antaro opens a world of design possibilities for standard drawers and inner drawers tailored to kitchen, bedroom, or other living spaces. The drawer system is available in multiple heights and nominal lengths, with choices in grey, silk-white, and stainless steel colours.

 Tested beyond industry requirements for enduring quality that lasts the furniture’s lifetime

To secure the overall quality and performance of TANDEMBOX antaro, Blum subjects it to industry-leading testing standards, which include 100,000 opening and closing cycles and additional tests like static load, lateral load, and slam open and slam shut, ensuring top quality for the lifetime of the furniture.

 Effortless opening and closing with advanced motion technologies

Interacting with drawers and pullouts made from TANDEMBOX antaro is smooth and easy, thanks to Blum’s motion technologies. The mechanical soft-close BLUMOTION closes drawers softly and effortlessly regardless of the force applied. Ensure one-push opening and the freedom to design handleless drawers and pullouts with the mechanical TIP-ON or electrical SERVO-DRIVE motion technologies.

 Enhanced drawer organisation with ORGA-LINE inner dividing systems

Blum enables you to design exceptional drawers and helps you organise their interiors. The ORGA-LINE inner dividing system from Blum securely holds items within the drawer interiors while ensuring everything is in plain sight and within arm’s reach.

 Maximise storage potential with TANDEMBOX antaro for unique cabinet applications

When it comes to optimal storage, maximising the available space becomes a necessity. Blum offers a range of cabinet applications that utilise every inch of space to ensure practical and functional storage in spaces commonly overlooked or underutilised in home design. Some of these unique cabinet applications that you can design with TANDEMBOX antaro include:

 · SPACE CORNER: Create drawers in the usually neglected kitchen corners.

· SINK UNIT: Create drawers around the sink.

· SPACE TWIN: Turn even narrow spaces into drawers.

· SPACE TOWER: Larder unit with spacious storage, easy access, and design freedom.
