Polki Bridal Jewellery
This style of jewellery comes as raw as they get — dating back to the Mughal era and the desert royals of Rajasthan and Gujarat — unpolished, unprocessed and uncut diamonds set in gold give life to the beautiful Polki Jewelry. The diamond and gold combo gives Polki a luminescent look. Their raw quality and exuberant lustre make them a little heavy on the pockets but a purchase totally worth it!
Gemstone Bridal Jewellery
Classy, elegant and value for money, Gemstone jewellery is a favourite pick among modern brides. This jewellery is crafted out of precious and semi-precious stones like Emerald, Sapphire, Jade, Rose Quartz and Ruby. These timeless pieces add a royal look to your bridal ensemble and can be adorned at pre- and post-wedding functions alike.
Kundan Bridal Jewellery
This traditional piece of jewellery that originated in Rajasthan involves elaborate layers of stone and precious metals on glass stones that are set in gold. Kundan is different from Polki but might confuse a novice. They differ in lustre and weight— Kundan being lightweight and less shiny than Polki which lowers Kundan’s price range significantly. An elegant option for the future bride running on a budget.
Meenakari Bridal Jewellery
If you’re more into a budget-friendly colourful ensemble, meenakari could just be the right choice for you. Filling the grooves of gold/silver ornaments designed around gods, goddesses, birds and animals, using bright enamels is what defines the craft of Meenakari. It’s an ideal choice for all pre- and post-wedding functions and timeless addition to your bridal trousseau.
