Kundan necklace, earrings and tikka (for the forehead).


More Details:
During the Mughal period, the art of kundan work reached Rajasthan from Delhi.
Later on, craftsmen from a different part of the country migrated to Rajasthan and made it the hub of Kundankari.
Rulers and feudal lords gave patronage to the art and it developed into perfection.
Today, Kundankari is known the world over, with Rajasthan serving as its epicenter.
Kundankari is basically done on gold and silver jewelry.
The beauty of kundan work lies in the precise setting of stones into kundan and the overall look of the ornament.
Traditional kundan jewellery has stones encrusted on one side and colorful and intricate meenakari on the reverse.
The entire technique of Kundankari lies in the skilful setting of gems and stones in gold, which is rarely solid.
Holes are cut for the gems, engraving is carried out and the pieces are enamelled.
The core of the ornament is made out of lac, a natural resin. Later, lac is inserted into the hollow parts and is
then visible from the front, through the holes left for the gems. Highly refined gold or kundan is used to cover the lac,
and gems are then pushed into the kundan. To increase the strength of the joints and to give it a smooth finish,
more kundan is applied. Kundankari is such a specialized work that it is carried out by groups of craftsmen,
each carrying out a specific task. The chiterias make the basic design, the ghaarias are responsible for engraving
and making holes, meenakari or enamelling is done by the enameller, with the goldsmith takes care of the kundan, or gold.
The jadiyas, or stone setters, set stones such as jade, agate, garnet, emerald, rock crystal, topaz, amethyst,
and spline into kundan.

The fabric is very soft, comfortable and a nice color. I do find that the elasticized upper hip tends to be a bit tight and the top tends to be a bit tight across the bust. Very NICE workmanship and finishing! I would recommend, but would suggest adding an inch to your measurements when ordering.
