The craze of the ‘return of the classics’ is here and how! This rage has spilled itself over to ancient customs, traditions, art, apparels and accessories. It is, therefore, increasingly refreshing to see a cluster of contemporary brides revamping and redoing their ancestral jewellery or jewels.

From celebrity weddings to cross-cultural nuptials, city-bound or countryside, this exquisite jewellery is reigning in glory.
Dating back to Basra in the Persian Gulf, this ornate adornment made its way to India from the ports of Bombay and Hyderabad. Revered by the rulers of these states here, the satlada and panchlada necklaces found a special place in the treasures of the women belonging to the nobility.
Today the satlada and panchlada necklaces can glam up your entire look and classify you as a novelty! Be it a chiffon saree, a pastel-hued lehenga, cocktail or reception gown or even your bridal lehenga, this necklace blends in a way that it can elevate your entire look!
