First things first, you guys do know that Bridal Asia, India's biggest, most comprehensive wedding exhibition is here, right? How can you miss all the drama here at WMG about Bridal Asia? We got a new tab next to our categories plus, we got a cool contest going on where you can win an exquisite lehenga too. A while ago, we even wrote about the absolute amazing things that you can find at Bridal Asia this year and we got an astounding response. So this week, we venture into our favourite topic - jewellery. We are obviously bored of polkis and chandbalis and jhumkis - we need something more. So we present to you 6 amazing new jewellery ideas and brands you should look at while you are at Bridalasia this week. ( Psst, we are gawking at the pictures - I want it all)
1. Tholia's Kuber
Tholia's Kuber is not a new brand as such - it has craftsmanship and credibility on its side from 1984. It was started by two brothers, Romi and Lala Tholia, who come from a renowned jeweller family based in Jaipur. What you need to know is that the jewellery house specialises in fine handcrafted jewellery with special emphasis on design and finish. They are known for their polki jewellery in 22 carat gold, but they also have silver jewellery for brides looking for something small.
2. Sunita Shekhawat Jewellery
You do remember how much we drooled over Sunita Shekhawat's collection at the Vogue Wedding Show this year. Her work is so new and enticing - each piece of jewellery represents the cultural heritage of Jaipuri 'meenakari'. Her jewellery is inspired by Rajasthan largely - from nature, from the colours and the beauty of intricate craftsmanship. Completely handmade, these jewellery pieces go on your cocktail dress with as much ease as your wedding lehenga.
3. Tanya Rastogi
Colour, colour, colour - that's exactly what Tanya Rastogi's collections are about. Her designs have won accolades and awards and her jewellery label says - Jewels of Awadh. The Awadh era that she plays with is really exquisite because the line uses rare gemstones such as Basra Pearls, Old Columbian Emeralds, Old Burmese Rubies, pink-white-and-green Meenas and interesting craftsmanship. There are vintage pieces for the bride who loves the old stuff - especially, Nawabi jewels. Some old pieces are curated, embellished with precious stones and refurbished to keep the vintage look intact.
4. Rikhab Das Udai Chand Jewellers
Rikhab Das Udai Chand showcases exquisite jewelry that ranges from the traditional to the contemporary. Especially diamond jewellery - perfect for the engagement to the youngsters party to the reception. The designs are modern and contemporary and oh, they'll fit your cocktail gown to the T.
5. Nemichand Bamalwa & Sons
Customised jewellery is their forte - Nemichand Bamalwa & Sons is one of the leading jewellers in India based in Kolkata (Calcutta). Their strength seems to be the retailing of old traditional jewellery and it shows tradition and culture at it's very best. Old historic designs are revamped and restored to suit modern needs.
6. Rawat Jewels
We saw these neckpieces and gave a tiny squeal of delight - Rawat Jewels really plays with polki, jadau and beautiful multi-coloured gemstones. Known as one of the most popular jewellers with experience of two and a half centuries - there's Jadau, polki, diamond jewellery and even beaded jewellery and fusion ideas. The good stuff!
