Polki Jewellery for Women & Girls

Mirror Polki Jewellery Online for Women & Girls

Polki jewellery is a popular jewellery trend in India especially when it comes to dressing up for Indian weddings or other traditional festivals and occasions. It’s a jewellery handcrafting technique that finds its roots in the Mughal era and remains extremely popular even today. Polki jewellery is a popular choice with celebrities and brides witnessed through various weddings, trousseaus and several other events in the recent past. We have also observed fashion icons like Sonam Kapoor have presented an otherwise traditional style of jewellery in its most modern avatars by styling it with western outfits and inspiring many others to do so. It’s the kind of jewellery that definitely should not be limited to your traditional Indian outfits as the styling potential goes way beyond.

Polki jewellery is the type of jewellery that uses diamond in its natural, raw uncut state and is wrapped around gold foil to create magnificently ornate pieces of jewellery. The concept very much parallels Zariin’s signature style of using uncut gemstones, in their raw, natural state to craft wearable, modern jewellery.

At Zariin, we have used the Polki jewellery technique in collections like Sheeshmahal and Tu Jhoom but instead of using original diamonds we have substituted it with mirror polki which uses fine mirrors which enables us to achieve the same look in 1/4th of the price. You get the same look without worrying about the cost or the safety of the product when travelling. The use of uncut diamonds substantially increases the cost.

The aesthetics of Polki jewellery has a timeless appeal to it and the Indian inspired statement jewels never fail to make an impression, impart elegance and carry forward the rich heritage of Indian jewellery crafting techniques. Polki earrings, necklaces, bangles and mango teekas are ever so popular and what further adds to their popularity is the ease of styling due to subtle luminescence and neutral colour aesthetics.
