Rakhdi/Borla

A beauty which comes in many forms, it is a statement piece of Rajput jewellery which will add a royal finesse and volume to your wedding outfit.

Polki Jewellery

Polki jewellery is another celebrated form of Rajasthani jewellery and a part of Rajput jewellery. Donned by Sonam Kapoor for her own wedding, this can really infuse the royal charm into your wedding outfit which Rajasthan is known for. You can style a Polki layered necklace for your Sangeet ceremony with a traditional saree or lehenga and it will go just as well with an Indo-western outfit.

Bajubandh

Not a very unique item, we are all more or less aware of the Bajubandh which is another part of the Rajput jewellery. This jewellery piece can be used to amp up your wedding looks in no-time. You can have simpler versions of Bajubandh in Kundan and gold for your other functions like the Mehendi and Sangeet.

Gharwali Rajput Nath

These huge Naths like these are a staple to have in every bride's trousseau. This one Rajputi ornament complements every Indian outfit and can take your bridal look from basic to glam in seconds. 

Meenakari Craftsmanship

A very wedding appropriate part of Rajput jewellery which will add colour and femininity to your wedding outfits is the Meenakari work on these jewellery pieces. In Meenakari art, the jewellery is designed by engraving the outlines of blossoms, birds, and patterns and is known exclusively for the bright colours and nature-themed engravings. It will make for the most beautiful and eye-catching jewellery option for your wedding functions.

Kamar Bandh

Kamar Bandh is also not something exclusively new to us with the use of the same over the time to spice up the traditional outfits like saree and lehengas. To add a touch of Rajasthani Rajput jewellery to your wedding outfit, you can choose from among the range of Kamar Bandhs, from the heavy Polki and Diamond ones to the sleek single-chain gold beauties. Pair them with your wedding outfits and create a gorgeous look for your wedding functions.

Rani Haar

Rani Haar is a very important part of the Rajasthani Rajput jewellery and can be likewise used to form a major part of your bridal trousseau, to add both volume and royal feel to the outfit. It is a long neckpiece, reaching the navel and usually paired with a choker necklace to add to the appeal and look. The use of uncut diamonds and gold is what traditionally makes it an eye-catching choice for wedding outfits.

Tribal Jewellery

Now, this is not something you would wear to your main wedding function per se and yet this part of the Rajput jewellery can be used as an accessory for your wedding outfits for functions like Haldi and Mehendi or any other pre-wedding festivity which is light and fun but also comes with a traditional touch. Traditional Rajasthani tribal jewellery is mostly in silver with precious or semi-precious stones, mirror work and will go beautifully well with bright coloured traditional outfits.

Lac Jewellery

Lac is the underrated beauty gem of the Rajasthani Rajput jewellery and is very rich in the colours with an infusion of precious and semi-precious stones into it. You can pair it up with a saree or a pair of lehenga choli and even an Indo-western-styled evening gown for one of the wedding functions.

Kundan Bhutti

Kundan Bhutti (commonly known as Bahubali earrings) are specifically a kind of Jhumka designs with a long design and are heavily studded with gems and stones, both precious and semi-precious. The designs are unique and modern that gives the bride both a feel of the old world charm of traditions along with a suave touch to the wedding look. These can also be used for the pre-wedding and post-wedding functions.
