Jewelry from India
Each region of India has distinctive styles of jewellery specific to it. Many factors - castes, cultural developments, external influences such as those from migratory tribes and trade contacts - influence the styles of a particular place. If we consider the nose ornament, for example, there was - surprisingly - hardly any reference to it in early Indian literature, sculptures or murals. The earliest depiction of the nose ornament is from the tenth century AD, in Mughal miniature and Rajasthani paintings. This has led to the inference that the nose ornament was introduced in India only after the invasion of the Arabs in the ninth-tenth century AD.
Excavations at the Indus Valley civilization sites of Mohenjodaro and Harappa (now in Pakistan), Mehargarh (Pakistan), Kalibangan (Rajasthan). Dhoulavira (Gujarat) and Kunal (Haryana) have uncovered several beads in a variety of shapes and materials, including silver, which was used to make necklaces and hand ornaments The earliest evidence of silver jewellery has been from the Indus Valley - silver strips found in Kunal may have been used in tiaras in the early Harappan phase of the Indua civilization.
