Frequently Asked Questions on Kundan Jewellery
1.How is Kundan Jewellery made?
The method used to create jewellery involves setting gemstones in gold foil. The stones are first set in a frame made entirely of pure gold to keep them in position. After that, the diamonds are carefully positioned inside this framework and secured by applying pressure to the gold surrounding them. Lastly, additional gold is poured into the voids left by the jewels to produce a smooth, elaborate pattern. The elaborate and colorful Kundan jewellery that is prized for its artistry and beauty is the product of this procedure.
2.What are the types of Kundan Jewellery Designs?
The traditional Indian jewellery known as kundana often consists of jewels embedded in gold foil between elaborate gold motifs. Jewellery designs come in a variety of forms, each having distinctive qualities and styles of its own:
- Polki Kundan - Uncut diamonds, or "polki," are frequently utilized in Kundan jewellery. These uncut, raw diamonds are used in this jewellery together with other jewels including sapphires, emeralds, and rubies. Usually made of 24K, the setting sometimes occasionally uses silver.
- Jadau Kundan - This method of creating jewellery involves setting stones in gold and then embedding them into a molten gold substrate. It is renowned for its elaborate patterns, which frequently combine enamel work with jewels.
- Minakari Kundan - Minakari or Meenakari is the technique of enamelling metal surfaces; it produces vivid and bright designs when paired with Kundan jewellery. The exquisite enamel work in a variety of hues that accentuates the brilliance of the gold and gemstones is a common aspect of Meenakari jewellery.
- Thewa Kundan - Thewa is an elaborate gold-embossed glass technique used in traditional Rajasthani jewellery-making. Thewa Kundan jewellery creates striking and distinctive designs by combining these intricately crafted glass pieces with Kundan settings.
- Navratna Kundan - In Vedic astrology, navratna refers to the nine gemstones that symbolize the nine planets. These nine gemstones, which are placed in the Kundan style and represent protection and auspiciousness, are featured in Navratna jewellery.
- Antique Kundan - Antique Kundan jewelry is designed to replicate the styles of ancient times. It often features elaborate designs, intricate filigree work, and a weathered or oxidized appearance to give it an antique look.
3.What is the difference between Kundan and Polki Jewellery?
These two traditional forms of Indian jewellery, vary in their crafting techniques, materials, and overall appearance . Kundan jewellery is crafted by embedding gemstones into gold foil, creating a framework of pure gold around them to secure them in place. In contrast, Polki jewellery employs uncut diamonds set in gold or silver, often held in place by prongs or bezel settings without the use of gold foil. Both jewellery hold significant cultural and aesthetic importance in India, frequently adorning individuals during special occasions like weddings, festivals, and religious ceremonies.
4.Why does Kundan Jewelery Turns black?
It can turn black because of exposure to air, moisture, or chemicals in the environment. When the metal reacts with these substances, it creates a dark layer on the surface. This process happens faster if the jewelery isn't stored well or if it comes into contact with things like perfume or sweat. The quality of the gold in the jewelery can also play a part in how quickly it tarnishes.
5.What makes Kundan Bridal Jewelry "Royal"
The word "royal" in Royal Kundan Bridal Jewellery denotes its connection to luxury and magnificence. These pieces frequently have intricate designs, premium gemstones, and painstaking craftsmanship, making them evocative of the jewellery worn by ancient royals.
