Types of Jewellery

The art of adornment goes back to the prehistoric man who used crude materials like flowers, beads, wood, shell, bone, stone, etc. With time the materials used in the making changed to ivory, copper, and then to precious metals like silver, gold embellished with precious stones.

Indian jewellery is as old as the Indus Valley Civilization itself. The ruins of the civilization date back to 5000 years and have yielded many types of jewellery. The cave paintings of Ajanta, Konark temples, Sanchi sculptures all showcase men and women wearing jewellery.

The temples in South India, Bengal, Orissa also present a plethora of examples of the jeweller’s art. Be it a king or a commoner everyone used jewellery back then, although nothing much has changed. As jewellery still remains a big part of our lifestyle.

Jewellery in ancient times was not only used for adornment but was also used as healing like jade jewelry and protection against mystical forces. Gemstones like navaratna or nine gems, each sacred to a certain planet, was and still are worn in a particular order to this day for the same reason.

And Indians have always regarded gold and silver as something auspicious and no ceremony is complete without it. Traditional dance forms like Bharatnatyam or Kathakali, Odissi, or Kathak use elaborate jewellery made of gold and silver or gold plated silver.
