Sterling Silver
Charm Necklace with Gemstone and Beads. Necklace is the
very important part of Women’s Jewelry. Necklaces
have always been especially popular because they
are worn as an adjunct to the face and contribute
much to concepts of facial beauty. They are found
in a staggering assortment of forms, styles and
materials. The most ephemeral, and arguably the
earliest to be devised by man, is the ubiquitous
Indian garland. Commonly worn by brides and
grooms, garlands are also presented to honour a
guest or important person, and used for religious
purposes, such as decorating and venerating the
image of a deity. Favorite garland flowers are
jasmine, rose and marigold.
Bead necklaces have always held a great
fascination for all people in India, and indeed
elsewhere. Ancient beads have been found at many
archaeological sites in India, and it is presumed
that originally they all had amuletic purposes.
The materials used for beads exploit the
resources of the vegetable, animal and mineral
worlds, and the manner of their use is infinite.
Sterling Silver Charm Necklace with Gemstone and Beads. Important because
of its religious associations is the basil plant(Ocimum sanctum), sacred to
Vishnu and widely cultivated by Hindus for
ceremonial purposes. Its stems are dried and cut
into sections that are strung as beads. Spices
such as cloves and cardamom seeds are used to
make aromatic necklaces and garlands, the latter
pearls have all been used for beads. Cowrie
shells, also used in necklaces, have found their
way by trade from their source in the Maldive and
Laccadive Islands to the most forms and colors is
glass. Manufactured at centres like
Papanaidupetta in Andhra Pradesh, Indian beads
today replace the great quantities of glass beads
formerly imported from the famous production
centres of Europe, such as Venice and Jablonz in
Czechoslovakia.
