Description
There is a geometry to longing, and the teardrop has always known it. Kundan work belongs to the royal ateliers of Rajasthan, where karigars in Jaipur and Bikaner learned to press refined glass or semi-precious stones into a lac-filled gold foil setting with a patience that borders on devotion. Here, that tradition is rendered in brass, shaped into repeating teardrop pendants that hang from a choker frame in a clean, close collar silhouette. The setting catches light the way old palace windows do: quietly, deliberately. Each stone is pressed and bordered so that no metal edge intrudes unnecessarily on the coloured face. The piece arrives in two colours, mint and pink, each altering its character entirely. Mint reads as cool and architectural; pink as festive and warm. The matching maang tikka, measuring 4.1 inches (approximately 10.4 cm) in drop, anchors the forehead with the same teardrop grammar as the choker, making the set cohesive rather than merely coordinated. Total weight sits at sixty-two grams, present but not burdensome. Wear the mint colourway over an ivory tissue silk kurta for a literary festival or a formal daytime wedding function. The pink version pairs beautifully with a deep burgundy or mustard anarkali at a sangeet or engagement ceremony. The necklace measures thirteen inches (approximately 33 cm) with an adjustable chain, accommodating most necklines comfortably at a single free size. Brass construction keeps the piece lightweight enough for extended wear, and the adjustable closure makes dressing unassisted entirely straightforward.
