Bead Jewellery
The art of using beads to
form jewellery and other household items dates back to Indus valley
civilization.
Did you know that India
is one of the largest bead producers in the world? Yeah, it’s true! Varanasi is
the major exporter of the beads throughout the world. It produces everything from hand-carved wooden
beads to exotic seed beads, eclectic beads (inspired by the tribes of India) to
religious beads (like the beads of a jap mala).
It is said to be at
least 5000 years old. In earlier times, people used to make bead jewellery out
of silver, gold, clay, ivory and wood. As the trends evolved, the art of making
bead jewellery evolved with them. Unlike the retro era, modern bead jewellery
industry uses vast colors and imaginative work.
The best thing about
bead jewellery is that it is very light weight and you can even add it to your work wear jewellery collection.
Filigree Jewellery
Filigree is a type of
art work which uses the process of tracery to make jewellery. In tracery, the fine
gold or silver wires/threads/beads are used to form delicate lace-like
decoration on the metal surface.
Originated in
Mesopotamia and Egypt, Filigree work looks best with gold and silver wires or
threads. The intricate work of interwoven threads imparts a classic traditional
look to the jewel.
Tribal Jewellery
Tribal jewellery is the perfect mixture of both ancient and
modern charm. Due to its eclectic,
earthy and funky look, tribal handmade jewellery has gained much popularity in
the modern era. In Earlier times, the tribes used shells, claws, jaws of
animals, ivory, wood to make the usual necklaces, bangles, and earrings or
jewellery pieces like ear cuffs, lip rings, and toe rings.
It is not the sheer beauty
of the tribal jewellery which makes it desirable but the real attraction lies
in intricately crafted unique designs and the efforts made by the skilled
craftsmen to curate each and every piece of handmade jewellery.

your office wear jewellery collection. For instance, you can pair short
oxidized danglers with your work outfits.
