Bridal Floral Green Kundan Hathphool

The Bridal Floral Green Kundan Hathphool is a hathphool from Sirini Jewellery in green Kundan with a floral central motif. A hathphool covers the back of the hand — a central motif linked by fine chains to finger rings and a wrist bracelet. It is a bridal-day piece for the mehendi hand.

Handcrafted at Sirini's own workshop in Santacruz West, Mumbai, each stone foil-set by hand in the Kundan technique.

How to wear it

Wear it on your dominant hand so it shows in photographs and while you gesture. Match it to your bangles and keep the wrist otherwise clear so the chains sit flat; a plain ring on the other hand is enough.

Care

Water, perfume and sweat reach the foil behind the stones fastest on a piece this close to the skin — keep it away from all three. Wash and moisturise your hands before putting it on, not after, since lotion and water are what dull the plating fastest on a piece this close to the skin. Store it flat in its own pouch.
