Ivory Jewelry

Jewellery that is made from the tusk of an elephant is called ivory jewellery. Importance of ivory jewellery can be guessed from the fact that in Gujarat, the bride receives an ivory bangle from her family just before marriage as jewellery. During marriage ceremony wearing of ivory bangles is must for bride in some regions of the country. For example, in Rajasthan also, ivory bangles form a part of bridal jewellery. Other than bangles, ivory pendant that is attached to a necklace or earring is quite popular in India.

Ivory, being soft, can be shaped into desired designs and patterns. Its USP is it is light weight as well as its white colour, which makes it extremely attractive to people. Ivory is smooth and desired texture can be easily depicted on it. It is for these reasons it is popular among jewellery makers and customers.

Historically speaking, ivory was used for making jewellery even before gold or any other metal, for that matter, was used for jewellery making. In the earlier time, ivory was painted or bleached and was considered an excellent material for carving.

With time, it started being used for the purpose of making jewellery. Though ivory jewellery has always been considered a traditional

ornament, lately its charm has been observed in campuses in India.The major reason behind the popularity of ivory jewellery is the fact that is available in different styles and patterns and is within the pocket money of college goers.

Jadau, Jadtar, Jadaii Jewelry(Gem set Jewelry )

Jadau is Real Diamonds + Kundan + Meenakari Work. All three combination get together to make jewellery piece called Jadau.

With hand carving small figures are made in Gold – leaves, human figure etc. Inside these figure, Meenakari work is done. In the negative spaces flux is filled, its called lakh. On this lakh, real uncut diamond is set using Kundan.

Jadau Jewellery forms one of the major examples of high skilled craftsmanship that was brought into India by Mughals. Historically speaking, the tradition of Jadau work has been in practice in the states of Rajasthan and Gujarat since the Mughal era. Jadau jewellery is also called engraved jewellery and is unique and a kind in itself. Considered to be a traditional jewellery of India, it is used in many traditional and auspicious occasions, like marriages and festival celebrations.

In today’s time Jadua jewellery is bought and used significantly in

Page 12: Jewellery

southern India. Weddings in Southern cities of India in Tamil nadu and Kerala are popular for use of Heavy Jewellery made with high quality diamonds and lot of Gold. In short the traditional jewellery out of Rajasthan and Gujarat have become symbol of beauty and richness in all parts of India.

In Hyderabad Navabs & Royal family use to wear lot of Jadau jewellery , hence there were lot of skilled Jewellery makers from Hyderabad too. So much so that even Havelis ( Palaces and living areas of Royal families) of Navab families were decorated using Meenakari on walls.

Jadau work is team work, where a group of craftsmen are involved together. Each craftsman carries out a specific task related to the jewelry creation.

The Chiterias(Talented Artist) make the basic/central design, 

Ghaarias are responsible for engraving and making holes, 

Enameler/Meenakar do the Enameling/Meenakari and theGoldsmith takes care of the the stone setting, polishing and finishing.

ProcessIn Jadau jewellery, precious and semi precious stones, gems, crystals and beads are embedded in gold, which is first melted a bit. 

When the gold becomes pliable, the stones are set on it with great precision and artistry. After that, it is allowed to cool down and the stones and gems get fixed on it without any adhesive or carvings.

Uncut diamonds called Polki or Vilandi are used as the central stone. The diamonds are embedded in silver foil with great skill and precision. The gems are then coated with 24 carat gold plating. The piece is kept aside so that it cools down

Page 13: Jewellery

Enameling /Meenakari or art work done at the back of the jewel is purely for beautifying purposes.

Afterwards, the rest of the stones are set in the piece without additional carvings or bonding agents. The other stones used in Jadau jewellery are colored gems such as emeralds, rubies, kundan, beads, crystals and semi precious stones.

Highest care and attention is given towards the detail on every piece that the master craftsman creates. 

These days, Jadau is done on not just jewellery, but also jewellery boxes and delicate showpieces.

Today Jadau jewellery are very common to be seen in Indian weddings. This is an excellent example of how Traditional art of India has become popular in Modern India.

Please view My sharing of Designs:::kundan Jewellery

Kundan Jewelry(Gem setting on gold )

During Mughal period, the art of kundan work reached Rajasthan from Delhi. Later on, craftsmen from the different part of the country migrated to the place and made Rajasthan a hub of Kundankari. Rulers and feudal lords gave patronage to the art and it

Page 21: Jewellery

developed into perfection. Today, Kundankari is known the world over, with Rajasthan serving as its epicenter. Kundankari is basically done on gold and silver jewellery. The beauty of kundan work lies in the precise setting of stones into kundan and the overall look of the ornament. 

ProcessTraditional kundan jewellery has stones encrusted on one side and colourful and intricate meenakari on the reverse. The entire technique of Kundankari lies in the skillful setting of gems and stones in gold, which is rarely solid. Holes are cut for the gems, engraving is carried out and the pieces are enameled. The core of the ornament is made out of lac, a natural resin. Later, lac is inserted into the hollow parts and is then visible from the front, through the holes left for the gems. Highly refined gold or kundan is used to cover the lac and gems are then pushed into the kundan. 

To increase the strength of the joints and to give it a smooth finish, more kundan is applied. Kundankari is such a specialized work that it is carried by a group of craftsmen, each carrying out a specific task. The chiterias make the basic design, the ghaarias are responsible for engraving and making holes, meenakari or enameling is done by the enameller and the goldsmith takes care of the Kundan or gold. The jadiyas or stone setters, set stones such as jade, agate, garnet, emerald, rock crystal, topaz, amethyst, and spinel into kundan.

Please view My sharing of Designs:::Lacquer jewellery sets

Lac/lacquer Jewelry

Lac jewellery, also known as lacquer jewellery, originated in Rajasthan and has gained considerable popularity in India today. Lac jewellery is available in versatile designs, which add to its beauty. Among the various items in lac jewellery, the bangles need a special mention. Bangles made of Lac are of bright colour and glass work done on them makes them more attractive.

Page 29: Jewellery

This prominent craft of Rajasthan was initially developed by tribal people of the state. Once the craft of tribal people, lacquer jewellery is now rage of urban India. The accessories made of lac attract everyone for obvious reasons. Some of the major accessories included in lac jewellery, like Bala, Bajuband, Rakhi, Jod, Gajra, Gokhru, Timaniyan, are extremely popular. A good chunk of the jewellery is exported to outside world, which in turn provides more employment and inspires improvisation in design and pattern of jewellery. 

Process:The process of making lac jewellery is complex. Glass beads, flower shaped mirrors and decorative wire are also used for the enhancement of beauty of the jewellery. The bangles of lac consist of an inner-core that has a covering of thin layer of superior quality lac. Core lac, when mixed with a material similar to white clay, strengthens the bangle. The heating, mixing, kneading, and hammer pounding of the parched ingredients takes place repeatedly and dough like mass is formed. 

Once this mass is heated, it is shaped further and the expansion of the lac takes place in lieu of bargained diameter. This results in thickening of bangle. Further, a tool (flat-shaped) is used to roll the bangle across the flat surface, which gives it a proper thickness. The shaping is done by suppressing the length of lac into grooves (coloured) on every side of the mould. The lac takes the shape of the groove into which it is forced. This process, which requires great precision, produces the most beautiful pieces of jewellery.

Meenakari Jewelry(Enameling)

In Meenakari jewellery, precious stones are set and then enameled with gold. Historically speaking, the art was introduced to Rajasthan artisans by Raja Mansingh of Amer. He invited Lahore-based skilled artisans to his kingdom, and their intermingling with the locals craftsmen resulted in an amalgam, which came to be known as

Page 36: Jewellery

Meenakari. Meenakari is also a team work, where specialization of skill is of paramount importance.

As it is generally done on the reverse side of kundan jewellery, meenakar has to work with goldsmith, engraver or ghaaria, designer or chitteria as well as jadiya.

Process:The art requires higher skill and its intricacy calls for application of technical mindset. In Meenakari, the piece of metal on which the work is to be done, is fixed on a lac stick.Designs of flowers, birds, fish etc are engraved on it. This leads to the creation of walls or grooves, to hold colour. Enamel dust, of required colour, is then poured into the grooves and each colour is fired individually. The heat of the furnace melts the colour and the coloured liquid gets spread equally into the groove. This process is repeated with each colour. 

Subsequently, each colour is individually fired. Colours, which are most heat resistant, are applied first, as they are re-fired with each additional colour. Once the last colour has been fired, the object is cooled and burnished or polished with agate. The depth of the grooves, filled with different colours, determines the play of light. Silver and gold are used for the base of Meenakari. Choice of colours, in case of silver, has to be green, yellow or blue, as these are the colours which stick with it. As for gold, all the colours can be applied to it and this is also the reason why the metal is preferred for Meenakari jewellery.

Meenakari jewellery can be found in various colour schemes ranging from a single colour palette often used to match to a bridal trousseau or a mix of different colours, also depending on whether it is used on a gold or silver coloured base.

This form of jewellery is not only popular in Rajasthan but favoured by many Indian brides around the country. The sheer variety of shades and design choices available make it easy to pair with intricate wedding fashion and the most opulent of outfits.

Navratna Jewelry

In Navratna jewellery, nine auspicious stones are used in a single ornament. The belief behind this is that the nine stones together ensure well being of the person who wears it. In India, Navratna jewellery has been given major importance, because of its astrological significance as well as its innate charm. The nine stones used in the jewellery diamond, ruby, emerald, coral, pearl, sapphire, garnet, topaz, and cat's eye. As it is believed in astrology, each planet watches over one of the nine gems and offer power. 

Shukra is the planet for the diamond, Sun for ruby, Saturn for sapphire, Rahu for garnet, Ketu for cat's eye, Moon for pearl, Guru for topaz, Buddh for emerald and Angaraha for coral. Navratna jewellery can be set in rings that are mounted, so that the stones touch the skin. The weight of the stones is decided according to the individual's astrological chart.

Pachchikam Jewelry(Gem setting on silver )

In the world of fashion and design, old trends tend to come over again and again, though with slight changes. Pachchikam jewellery making craft is one of the examples of jewellery that has come back once again. Originated in Gujarat and Kutch, centuries ago, Pachchikam jewellery has again become popular and now, is very much in fashion. 

Many contemporary designers are today inspired by the art of Pachchikam jewellery and they are leading the way for further development in the art.In comparison with Kundan work, Pachchikam has crude look and is pretty fragile. Major USP of Pachchikam is that instead of using gold for jewellery making, it makes use of silver and is thus, quite affordable. One of the reason for opting for silver as the base metal is that it is highly malleable and it closely resembles platinum, a precious metal. Pachchikam jewellery is quite flashy and can be worn on formal occasions.

process:The process of making Pachchikam jewellery is also quite

Page 59: Jewellery

complicatedIn this case, the stone is inserted in a silver case, the edge of which is pressed onto the stone with the finger and then grooves are filed on it. A closer look shows a setting, which is crude in its execution, but it is in this quality that its aesthetical charm lies, making connoisseurs of beauty appreciate it. The workmanship involves a very laborious process, which is time consuming and tedious. Uncut semi-precious stones and glasswork are significant products used in making of Pachchikam jewellery.

The art is still kept in by families in Kutch and Gujarat, where it has been handed down from generations. The major hindrance in the growth of Pachchikam is that it cannot be produced on a mass scale. The craftsmen are highly conservative, not willing to change according to the needs and demands of time. They are not open to change in technical developments and are not experimenting with new trends and patterns.This regressive attitude, despite the fact that it has huge potential, is harming the overall growth of Pachchikam jewellery art and industry.

Pearl Jewelry

Pearls have been seen in history and historical legend since Cleopatra's time, when she supposedly dissolved a large pearl in vinegar and drank the potion to demonstrate her infinite wealth. In Roman times Pearls have been found in the graves of women. The largest known pearl weighs about 454 carats and is roughly the size of a chicken egg. 

The Indian pearl is named as "La Peregrina," a particularly beautiful specimen in shape and lustre, weighs 28 carats, belonged, to Mary Tudor for a time, and was housed in a museum in Moscow, Russia, until the 1960's when it was sold to the actor Richard Burton who presented it as a gift to his wife at the time, Elizabeth Taylor. In 1886, a remarkable natural creation named the "Great Southern Cross" was discovered in an Australian oyster; nine pearls had united during natural pearl formation to produce a perfect cross over 1 in (2.54 cm) long.

Pearls are meant for purity and perfection. White pearls symbolize elegance, beauty and peace. They are recognized as

Page 66: Jewellery

Moon and are valued next to diamond. Pearls are born from the molluscs. They are formed in a wide range of colors. Molluscs have a soft body and a hard shell. All molluscs cannot produce pearls, they are still rare. The technique of cultured pearls has made this gem more common.

Pearls are usually made of aragonite and conchiolin. Pearls are of different shapes and sizes. These pearls generally depend on the species of mollusc and the time it took to form. They need not necessarily be white but range from, golden, purple to pink and cream. Even black pearl can be found amongst the cultured ones. The common feature remains its glow and lustre due to reflection of light.In Coastal India, Pearls remain in abundance. Pearl Jewellery like necklaces, earrings, rings and bracelets were made with such intricacy that they even resembled laces. Indian pearls and pearl ornaments were exported to Europe during the 17th and the 18th century. They have never lost their importance and popularity since then and have remained in fashion.

India has a long and glorious history of appreciating pearls. About 3,000 years ago, pearls were mentioned in the Rigveda, the oldest of the Vedas. Around 2,500 years ago, the Atharaveda mentions an amulet made of pearls and used as a talisman. The ancient epic poem, the Ramayana, describes a necklace made with 27 pearls. Imagine the classic 16-inch necklace of about 9-11mm pearls - these would have been spectacular pearls! The god Krishna is also associated with pearls in important stories.

India was operating pearl fisheries also in the past. The traditional areas which had produced natural pearls are located in the Gulf of Mannar (Tamil Nadu) and Gulf of Kutch (Gujarat) but today the production is limited. The Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute of the Government of India succeeded in culturing pearls and a project was launched at the Vizhinjam centre, near Thirvananthapuram (Kerala). Efforts were made in Gujarat to produce pearls. With successful experiments in 1994, Rajasthan also hoped to produce cultured pearls from its Southern lakes. However, most of the cultured pearls that India requires have to be imported from Japan and China. Dependence on imports sometimes results in delays and higher costs. Production is also dwindling in Japan.

Page 67: Jewellery

India's latest efforts are to import quality pearls from Myanmar (Burma). Oriental pearls have been coming from old inland collections.Though it is not close to the sea, Hyderabad, which is also known as India's 'Pearl City', is famous for high-quality pearls processed there.

Employment opportunities 

These Indian colored gems, pearls and precious jewellery industries employ more than two lakh persons. Besides these workers, traditional gold and silversmiths have spread all over the country in large numbers. The modern jewellery thrust is also pushing up their number. The Indian workforce includes artisans of both male and female. In Jaipur, in some cases, even entire families are engaged in gems processing.

Pearl TypesNatural Pearls (also referred to as Oriental Pearls) are formed randomly, by chance, and are simple accidents of nature. When a certain type of irritant or a parasite becomes lodged in the tissue of a mollusk, the animal responds by secreting a calcium carbonate substance called nacre to coat the intruder and protect the mollusk. Nacre is a combination of crystalline and organic substances. The nacre builds up in layers, as it surrounds the irritant while protecting the mollusk, and after a few years, this build up of nacre forms a pearl.

Cultured Pearls are real pearls, grown organically inside of oysters in the same way as natural pearls. The only difference in the case of cultured pearls is that the initiation of the pearl formation has been given a helping hand by man.The difference is that in the cultured pearl, the inducement is intentional. Cultured pearls can not be distinguished from natural pearls without the use of x-rays to reveal the inner part of the pearl.

Tahitian Pearls, also known as 'South Sea' pearls, are not all black. They come in shades of green, greenish red, blackish red, silver, blackish gray, peacock, and occasionally in white. Tahitian pearls luster sometimes has a metallic sheen, which is very unique

Page 68: Jewellery

especially when combined with colored overtones.

South Sea Pearls are the rarest of all pearls and measure anywhere between 10mm to 20mm in diameter. These gorgeous pearls are found in the warm waters of North Australia and come in a variety of colors, ranging from from silver-white to dark gold, including pink, cream, champagne, yellow, green and blue.They need no artificial enhancement or coloring whatsoever, and are treasured as “The Queen of Pearls and the Pearl of Queens.” South Sea pearl pieces are revered for their magnificent quality and incredibly low prices.

Freshwater Pearls are often irregularly shaped, which lends character and originality.Although white is the most common color,freshwater pearls are noted for their wide range of color; they can be found in pink, salmon, red, copper, bronze, brown, lavender, purple, green, blue, cream, and yellow.Akoya Pearls come in a range of colors from silvery/white to gold and even blue/grey. Many experts believe that Akoya pearls have the highest luster of all cultured pearls

Platinum Jewelry

Platinum’s pureness, fewness and lasting prettiness make it the supreme sought after metal throughout the world. 

Platinum Jewellery is found more fashionable to wear with the blend of gold jewellery.

The white colour of the platinum delightfully contrasts with the yellow gold. 

Platinum is an unbreakable and expensive metal which on no occasion turns out to be dull. Platinum’s transparency make sure that the jewellery at no time fades away or changes colour and also maintains its shine for eons.We cannot discover a jewel further gorgeous, expensive, and

Page 76: Jewellery

stunning than platinum.

One more important thing that needs to be talked about is, platinum is skin friendly. Platinum has a worth of hypo-allergenic so it won’t infuriate the sensitive skin.

We can wear it on a regular basis. Scratches damage other jewellery type or metals but it won’t damage platinum jewellery. In spite of its strength, platinum is very agile, effective material, creating complicated designs and fine points far tranquil to attain than with gold. Since it is so uncontaminated, platinum jewellery is the picture-perfect hypoallergenic accessory for those who cannot wear anything made of gold or any other metal.

One of the reason individuals cannot wear gold is often related with the compounds involved in the jewellery production process. Since platinum jewellery encompasses very little alloy, it is a good choice for those who are subtle to metals. 

Platinum jewellery is completed from very pure platinum. As equated to gold, platinum falls between the 18-karat and 24-karat series, with 18 karat being just about 75% pure and 24 karat being the unadulterated. Since 18-karat jewellery is 75% pure, that means that the other 25% of the portion is an amalgam, such as silver, zinc or copper. This solely means that platinum has the need of very little compound to be combined with it in order to make platinum jewellery.

Platinum is very thick and weighty metal, so a platinum ring will sense heavier than an 18kt gold ring. Platinum is, on the other hand, considerably more costly than gold. With all additional things being the same, a platinum ring will be just about two times the amount of an 18kt white gold ring. Platinum is an esteem choice and is so often selected for its stylish appeal and acceptance in the midst of the rich and renowned. Platinum is in general not used in the full range of jewellery products due to its greater price.
