Howdy Reader! If you are a woman, aren’t you
nodding yeahh? And Guys, you can never understand why women crave for jewelry
so much. Women love to look pretty and jewelry helps her in that; period. So,
it is not a rocket science and You need not be Einstein to understand it.
Jewelry is as important for women as food, air and water. It is not to be
surprised to hear that some women want to take their jewelry to the grave.
Hufff!! Crazy right?Nahh.. While women wore jewelry whole her life then why not
look pretty in and after moments of death too. Well in short women and jewelry
are synonymous. Woman is incomplete without jewelry and jewelry is a piece of
metal until a woman wears it.

Well, this is about now. But do you know this
unconditional love of women has been continuing from the way back? When we ask
women about their love for jewelry, we get many excuses. “It is good for
health”, “it calms me down”, “I am just taking my culture to next generation”,
“My Mum did, so why not me?”. Stop it women! We know the fact behind. Admit it,
jewelry fetches you praises and you love the jealous looks of your “frienimy”.

Glittery Present: History of Indian jewelry
Glittery Present: History of Indian jewelry
In India, people are little touchy about jewelry.
It is more of a symbol of social status than just an ornament. Wait a minute,
we just browsed the internet and found, “History of Indian
jewellery is as old as the history of the country itself.”
No doubt India is at the pinnacle of jewelry making that too ‘top class’. In my
family, parents start saving for buying jewelry for their girl child since
birth. The culture of wearing jewelry dates back 5000 years. In the stone age,
women jewelry consists of stones, flowers, carved woods and wait for it…wait
for it..Bones.Euhh. But try to understand, they didn’t had gold, silver,
diamond, platinum.

In the medieval age, jewelry fever took over men
too. We can find many paintings and sculptures depicting rulers and even common
men adorning themselves with the jewelry. We can find mention of quality of
Indian jewelry in the Indian holy texts as well as texts composed by various
scholars who visited India from various parts of the world. Indian jewelry was
not only elegant and exquisite but they carried various stones with the
mystical powers. Still you can see people wearing various kinds of rings each
for a particular finger to ward off evil eyes. Indian jewelry reached its
zenith under Mughals. “Meenakari” embellish jewelry is still considered one of
the best.

With the time passing, jewelry became a way of
financial security. They were put as savings to be used at the time of
financial crises. Later on jewelry became the perfect gift to be given on the
greatest events of life- marriage, childbirth etc. India is the mother of a
huge variety of jewelry. Each state in India has its own special jewelry.
Indian brides have so many options to adorn themselves on their big day.

Maang
Tikka:
Tikka:
What its called in english..??
Umm..head..headjewelry.. Leave, let us stick to tikka only. So, tikka (or borda
in rajasthani) is worn on middle parting of hair. This is the position of ‘agya
chakra’ which stands for preservation. It signifies union of male and female
elements of the universe on spiritual, emotional and physical level.

Nose
ring/ Nath:
ring/ Nath:
It is extremely painful to get nose pierced and it
is the tragedy of every teenage girl that her mother always nag her to get her
nose pierced to be able to wear nose ring in marriage. Nath represents
virginity. Scientifically, it helps in breathing. Those women who have their
nose pierced experience less pain while delivering baby. Strange…right?

Earring:
It is the most loved jewelry of all. Even if a
women do not wear ring or chain or anything, she most probably wear earrings.
Why earrings are so important that girl child has to go through the pain of
piercing? Piercing sucks, right? Well, to gain something, you have to bare some
pain. It is said that the evil spirits enter the body through openings. Ear
being a risk for that, wearing earring keep the evil away from us.

The more scientific reason of wearing the earrings
is that, it keeps kidney and bladder healthy. A nerve connecting brain to
kidney passes through ear. So if your kidney fails and you wonder why?Thats
just because you didn’t get your ear pierced. Hah!

Necklace:
To be more specific; mangalsutra, represents the
commitment. During marriage rituals, groom ties mangalsutra around bride’s neck
which she wear till he is alive. Going on the scientific path, it controls body
pressure levels. Did you heard from your old Grandma to keep necklace/chain
hidden inside clothes? No, not to save it from thieves but your Grandma is
simply genius. The fiction of necklace with the body increases the body
circulation thus aiding lowering the pressure levels. And see our Moms, they
really have so much work and pressure.

Kamarbandh/
waist belt:
waist belt:
Even if waistbands didn’t do anything than
ornamenting and just a piece of jewelry, we would love to see every women
wearing it. It is so seductive. But nothing is just a jewelry! Waist belts keep
the belly fat in check. For a bride, it signifies the sense of authority in the
new house. It is used to carry keys of the house.

Bangles:
Bangles increases the blood circulation level in
the body by constant friction. The electromagnetic-energy (Yes, the same EME
that spoiled our sleeps in 10th class.. Frown) emitting from wrist is reverted
back into the body because of ring shape of bangles. It represents charm,
safety and luck for married women. Many mother-in laws gift their traditional
bangles to their daughter-in laws saying “HamariKhandaaniNishaanihaiBahu!!”.

Ring:
Many ‘Filmy’ people know the reason of wearing ring
on the “ring finger”. It is because the nerve from ring finger runs directly to
the heart. The constant metallic friction is good for the healthy heart.

Anklet(Payal/
Pajeb):
Pajeb):
It was considered as a protection for women against
the attack of evil from “patal”(Hell). The tinkling sound that payal spreads

own body. Nowadays, a new bride wearpayal as the symbol of bringing new
happiness and prosperity in the family. Indian women mostly wear the silver
anklets.

women like silver, some gold, some are crazy about diamonds. While every metal
