Meenakari- the ornament-making technique that was popularized by the Mughals, has today become an inseparable part of traditional Indian jewelry. Long hours of shaping and cutting the metal, adding the design to the piece, putting paint on the metal surface, heating it to regularize the paint, and adding the finishing touches go into the making of beautiful Meenakari jewelry.
Bringing to you a contemporaneous example of the richness of Meenakari. The sterling silver choker is coated with a fine gold slip, bringing to it a classic feel, which is enhanced by the line of tiny globular golden beads on the upper part and a row of ghungroos (mini bells) in the lower section.
The main attraction of this beautiful jewelry piece is undoubtedly the image of dancing peacocks, framed within golden squares and embellished by the use of deep green and blue enamel. Dancing peacocks in Indian culture are representatives of the arrival of the monsoon, Varsha Ritu, which is the season of fertility, newness, youth, and vigor. The colors blue and green are also linked with the coming of rains that enrich not just the earth, but also the human heart with their revitalizing impact.
Pair this flawless sterling silver choker necklace with your ethnic outfit to complete your look or experiment with your style by trying it on with your western attire, to add to it the touch of traditional Indian fashion. Exotic India Art has this stunning sterling silver choker necklace with peacock motifs, to take you back to the lavish days of the royals.
