A Kundan Bridal Jewellery Set is more than just a piece of jewellery—it's a work of art, a symbol of tradition, and an essential part of every bride's big day. But have you ever wondered what goes into creating these stunning masterpieces?
Let’s take you on a behind-the-scenes journey into the fascinating world of Kundan jewellery making, where expert artisans turn raw materials into exquisite bridal treasures.
Step 1: The Foundation – Creating the Framework
The process begins with a base framework, usually made of gold, copper, or an alloy. This structure forms the skeleton of the Kundan Bridal Jewellery Set and determines the final shape of the necklace, earrings, maang tikka, or bangles.
👑 Did you know? Traditional Kundan jewellery is crafted using the age-old technique of jadau, a skill passed down through generations.
Step 2: The Magic of Kundan – Placing the Stones
Now comes the heart of the jewellery—the dazzling Kundan stones. These are high-quality glass stones, often uncut or slightly polished, set meticulously into the framework.
✨ The process involves:
✔ Heating and softening the framework for easy stone placement
✔ Embedding each stone with precision using natural resin (lac)
✔ Layering the stones to create intricate designs
Each stone is hand-set, making every piece of Kundan Bridal Jewellery Set one of a kind!
Step 3: The Meenakari Touch – Adding Color & Detailing
The beauty of Kundan jewellery lies in its rich detailing, and that's where Meenakari comes in. This technique involves intricate enamel work, adding pops of color to the backside of the jewellery.
🎨 Why it’s special:
✔ Meenakari enhances the overall appeal of the jewellery
✔ It adds a dual-tone effect, making the jewellery reversible
✔ The vibrant colors reflect royal craftsmanship
💡 Pro Tip: Flip a traditional Kundan Bridal Jewellery Set, and you might find a stunning Meenakari design underneath!
Step 4: The Polishing – Bringing Out the Shine
Once the stones are set and the enameling is complete, the jewellery undergoes polishing to give it a flawless shine.
🌟 The process includes:
✔ Buffing the surface for a smooth finish
✔ Adding a final touch of gold or antique polish
✔ Ensuring the stones stay securely in place
At this stage, the Kundan Bridal Jewellery Set starts looking wedding-ready, with its rich, royal glow!
Step 5: The Final Flourish – Pearls, Beads & More!
To add an extra touch of grandeur, artisans embellish the jewellery with:
💎 Pearls – For a sophisticated finish
💎 Beads – To enhance the design structure
💎 Dangling Stones – For a touch of movement and elegance
These tiny details elevate the entire look, making the jewellery perfect for a royal bridal ensemble.
