Some of the most attractive Indian jewelry comes from the land of
Rajasthan. Rajasthan is considered to be the crafts paradise of India.
In colors, concepts and workmanship – the handicrafts of Rajasthan are
incomparable. Their ethnic aura makes them absolute collector's delight.
Rajasthani jewelry has a vast and varied tradition. Each area in
Rajasthan actually has its own unique style of making jewelry. While the
rural Rajasthani women prefer to adorn themselves with chunky silver
jewelery, the urban ladies generally go for gold jewellery. Some of the
traditional ornaments are rakhri, timaniyan, bala, bajubandh, gajra,
gokhru, jod, etc.
Rajasthan is also famous for its precious and semi-precious jewelry
traditions. Exquisite ornaments are made in Jaipur and Jodhpur using
emerald, diamond, pearl, garnet, agate and lapis lazuli. Rajasthan
specializes in meenakari. Meenakari is the art of enameling on gold or
silver. In Jaipur, craftsmen use the champleve or raised-field style. In
Nathdwara, enameling is done on silver and other metals. Pratapgarh
meena or theva work in gold on green or red enamel is widely appreciated
for its beauty and appeal.
Kundan is the art of setting precious stones in gold. Kundan jewelery is
exclusive both in terms of design and perfection. Often, a combination
of meenakari and kundan is used to give the jewellery two equally
beautiful surfaces – enamel at the back and kundan-set gems in the
front. Jewelry in Rajasthan is much more than just adornment – it is a
part of their culture and traditions. All Rajasthani women wear bangles
for it is considered inauspicious for a woman's forearm to be bare. Lac
bangles are worn as an auspicious sign and good omen. Lacquer bangles
are made in an amazing variety of designs and colors – some in flat
colors, some iridescent or marbles, while others flash white fire from
rhinestones or tiny mirrors at the turn of the wrist. Glass bangles – an
all time favorite of all Indian women, are available in a large variety
in all the parts of Rajasthan – the greatest variety being offered in
Jaipur and Jodhpur. So next time you visit Rajasthan, make sure you buy
some of these fabulous handmade jewelery. You can also buy them online
and get it delivered at any part of the world.
