Polki Necklace Set Jewellery
Polki Necklace Set Jewellery is a traditional form of Indian gemstone jewellery involving a gem set with gold foil between the stones and its mount, usually for elaborate necklaces. The method is believed to have originated in the royal courts of Rajasthan and Gujarat. It is one of the older forms of jewellery made and worn in India. The word Polki means highly refined gold, and a highly refined and pure form of molten gold is used.
It remains an integral part of the traditional bridal wedding trousseau. Traditional settings, including the thappa and ras rawa, are experiencing a revival. Most recently, in the 2008 epic film, Jodhaa Akbar, the lead character portrayed by Aishwariya Rai was extensively shown wearing Polki jewellery, highlighting its influence among Rajasthani royalty.
Polki Necklace Set Jewellery , also known as Bikaneri or Jaipuri jewellery, is a popular variation, wherein enameling with vivid colours and designs is on the reverse, while the Polki setting is in the front. The city of Jaipur in Rajasthan has traditionally been the centre for Polki jewellery in India.
Polki flourished under royal patronage during the Mughal era. Over the years, the Polki jewellery of the courts was successfully copied in silver in Rajasthan, Bihar and the Punjab and became popular with the common man.
