India and jewellery, jewellery and Indian women - the terms are linked
inherently. At the time of wedding as well as numerous other
occasions, a woman is gifted jewellery by her parents and relatives.
Although the gift is meant to give her security in contingency,
ornamentation is an obvious purpose. All the cities across the length
and width of India have shops of jewellers - some traditional and some
modern jewellers, catering to the need of all kinds. Not that the affluent
class people wear ornaments, there are low cost jewellery items in
ample, which cater the demand of low income group as well.

India houses various kinds of jewellery arts, ranging from Meenakari
and Kundan to stone and bead work. The craft of cutting and polishing precious and semi-precious stones and
giving them glamorous face is something artistic. Emeralds, rubies, garnets, amethysts, corals, sapphires, and
turquoises are among the stones which are used for the enhancement of gold and silver jewellery. Gold jewellery
is the most popular among South Indian women. In southern part of India, gold is considered auspicious and a
status symbol. Talking about the art on gold jewellery, Kundan is something that comes into our mind.

It is a Mughal-inspired art of setting precious stones like diamonds, rubies, and emeralds in gold and silver
jewellery. In Meenakari, enameling is done to protect gold and floral pattern coloured in red, blue and green
attracts the attention. Silver jewellery is not far behind in popularity, particularly because of its affordability,
making it popular among low income group people. Jhumka, hansli, chokar, nath and bracelets made of silver are
quite popular among women in India. In short, the range of jewellery in India is wide as well as varied. Be it gold,
silver of diamond, you will find everything in the country.


An Indian bride is deemed incomplete without her sixteen adornments
and jewellery forms an essential part of these adornments. On the main
wedding day, every bride is expected to look her best. To achieve this
goal, the bride pays special attention towards her wedding attire,
jewellery, accessories, makeup and hair style. There are a number of
items in the jewellery which cover, almost all the vital parts of the body.
These items are specially prepared to compliment the bridal dress. The
bridal jewellery consists of the following items.

Maangtika
It is worn on the forehead by the bride. This is a reason why most of the bridal hair styles bear centre parting.
This is done in order to accommodate the maangtika. This can be in different shapes and studded with different
precious and semi precious stones. It usually consists of a string a with a centre piece attached to one end. In
varied cultures, the form of the maangtika varies. It is even seen as a crown in some regions.

Necklace
Necklace is the most eye catchy piece of jewellery, worn by the bride. It comes along with matching ear rings and
nose piece. Moreover, attention is paid that it complements the colour of your attire and neck line. A choker is
deemed perfect for such an occasion, coupled with a long necklace.

Ear Rings
The ear rings usually match the necklace. You can choose between varieties like long heavy ear rings or short
loops, from antique ear rings to small studs, depending upon your wedding outfit's colour and design.

Nose Ring
This is another essential jewellery item to be worn by the bride. It is also chosen keeping in mind the colour and
design of the ear rings. The traditional nose piece is known as 'Nath', which consists of a studded nose ring with
a long chain hooked up in the hair. In case the nose is not pierced, there are nose studs available, which can be
temporarily worn by the bride for the ceremony.

Bangles
Bangles are the symbol of the nuptial rituals. As a result, the bride wears both gold as well as glass bangles on
her wedding day. The glass bangles are mostly of the colour of the wedding dress. However, the gold bangles
are the ones gifted by the mother in law.

Arm Bands
Arm bands or armlets enhance the beauty of the bride, elating her grace and elegance. It is a traditional and
regal jewellery item, which has become quite a fashion statement today. For a more stylish look, they are worn
only on one arm.

Rings
Rings are also vital to the embellishment of the bride. Usually the bride wears a Hath phoolhar in her hands. This
consists of five rings for all the fingers, connected with a central piece, further connected with a bracelet, to be
worn in the hand.

Waist Band
Waist band is worn on the waist, over the saree or the lehenga. This is a heavy jewellery piece, which is quite
traditional in look and design. This also serves as a support for the wedding dress and helps to keep in place. An
artistic waist band can really add up to the grandeur of your wedding ensemble.

Anklets and Toe Rings
The bride also wears anklets and toe rings in her feet. These are usually made of silver as gold is not worn in the
feet. They are available in intricate designs, decorated with works of meenakari, kundan and beads.
