Jewellery craft in Rajasthan probably acquired the skills of granulation and filigree from Mesopotamia, where they are first known to have been used: it is also established that the Indus valley civilization hade trade contract with Mesopotamia. Animal motifs and designs that abound in Rajasthani jewellery were almost certainly introduced by the Scythians. In jewelry making, the enamel work of Rajasthan is very famous.

Nathdwara, a small town in Rajasthan has a tradition of doing enamel work on silver. This technique, enameling, is very popular in Rajasthan. The designs are first etched on the surface on which enameling is to be done. The surface is then fully burnished with agate. The various stones are then filled in their respective places. The piece is now placed on a mica plate and kept in the furnace. The mica plate is used to prevent its direct contact with fire. Colors are applied according to their hardness. The ones, which require more heat, are filled in first and so on. When it is taken out from the furnace finally, it is rubbed with a file very gently and cleaned with lemon juice or tamarind to give the shine. It is a very long and painstaking process, yet the craftsmen have very expert and swift hands in producing lovely enameled jewelry in Rajasthan.

Its shape is generally spherical but it can sometimes have a flat top. Designs are usually crafted on the surface through the process of granulation. On its sides and back these are provisions for attaching other ornaments. The bor, is some times, made in a combination of lac and gold. A small tube is attached to the front of the sphere. Sometimes colourful beads are threaded on the curved face of the ornament. A fine chain called the tidibalka is worn below the bor forming a semi-circular frame for it.

The bor is a symbol of marriage and is worn only after the wedding rituals are over. It is presented to the bride by her husband's family and is worn below the bor forming a semi-circular frame for it.

Traditional & Ethnic Indian Sterling Silver Gemstone Jewelry

Traditional & Ethnic Indian Sterling Silver Gemstone Jewelry

Jewelry is what India is famous for. It was not only in the older ages that we were known for our jewelries but even today there is no comparison between Indian jewelry and any other jewelry around the world. But even in India the jewelry is not same throughout the country but it is varying. It varies according to region. It varies according to the language they speak. It varies according to the regional customs. It varies according to the culture. Jewelry making is not any kind of manufacturing. You cannot produce it on a large scale. It needs time and it needs patience. You should have enough craftsmanship to do this. No institute can teach you how to make jewelry. They can teach you the theory but they cannot instill the quality, which is required for making jewelry. (via shalinJewelry)
