Green Dewdrop Maang Tikka

The Green Dewdrop Maang Tikka is a maang tikka from Sirini Jewellery in green Kundan with small dewdrop stone drops. A maang tikka hangs on a chain along the hair parting — a hook anchors into the hair and a pendant rests on the forehead, framing the face.

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

Details

• Materials: 18–22K gold plating over a brass base, with hand-set green Kundan and glass stones — fashion and imitation jewellery, not solid gold, diamonds, or precious stones
• Made in: Sirini's workshop, Santacruz West, Mumbai
• Fit: hook-and-chain fitting; the chain length adjusts to the hair parting
• Best for: weddings, sangeet and mehendi, Diwali and Navratri, and festive family occasions

How to wear it

Hook it into the hair at the crown so the pendant sits centred on the parting, just above the browline. The dewdrop stones swing slightly, so pin any flyaway hair back. Pair it with a necklace set in the same stone colour.

Care

Keep it away from water, perfume and sweat — moisture that gets behind the Kundan foil dulls the stones permanently. Put it on last and take it off first, wipe with a dry soft cloth, and store it in a pouch away from other pieces. Plating and polish are covered by a 1-year warranty.
