About the Founder

Designer • Dreamer • Doer

There is something quietly powerful about women who show up for everyone around them—and still, day after day, show up for themselves. Ashu Upadhyay is one of those women.

Rooted in Tradition
Born in Delhi, Ashu grew up surrounded by culture, strong values, and deep-rooted traditions. She pursued her passion for fashion at NIFT Delhi and went on to work with reputed export houses and international buying houses—shaping a refined eye for quality, detail, and global aesthetics.

A Life in Motion
Life then took on a different rhythm. As the wife of an Army officer, her journey has been defined by constant movement—new cities, new beginnings, and evolving roles. Alongside, she embraced motherhood, raising her sons while building a home with strength and grace, wherever life took her.

The Inner Fire
Through every shift, every pause, and every challenge, one thing remained unchanged—her inner fire. She did not stop. She chose to reimagine.

Craft & Connection
Her travels deepened her understanding of fabrics, drapes, and regional craftsmanship. She built close relationships with artisans and explored traditional dyeing and printing techniques—staying deeply connected to the roots of her craft while evolving with a modern perspective.

The Birth of SilverAsh
SilverAsh was born from this journey. A slow, soulful commitment to heritage and creativity. With a vision to blend style and sustainability, Ashu creates handcrafted pieces that celebrate tradition, support artisans, and promote conscious fashion—proudly reflecting the spirit of Make in India.
