Floral Kundan Maang Tikka With Ruby Bead Hanging | Antique Gold-Plated Finish

The Floral Kundan Maang Tikka With Ruby Bead Hanging is a flower-shaped maang tikka from Sirini Jewellery in an antique gold-plated finish, with a single ruby-red bead swinging below the pendant. It hangs on a chain along the hair parting, with a hook that anchors into the hair and a pendant that rests on the forehead — the piece that frames the face in almost every Indian bridal and festive look.

Handcrafted in Sirini's own Mumbai workshop — the stones are hand-set in the Kundan technique in a floral outline, with foil worked in behind each one and the ruby bead hung by hand at the base.

How to wear it

Hook it into the hair at the crown so the pendant sits centred on the parting, just above the browline. Pair with a choker or a necklace set in the same stone colour; add a passa at the side for a fuller bridal look.

Care

Water, perfume and sweat reach the foil behind the stones fastest, so keep all three away from this piece. The pendant sits close to the skin at the hairline, so let any face cream or sunscreen dry fully before hooking it in. Wipe with a dry cloth after wear and store it flat in its pouch.
