Ruby Meenakari Elegant Kundan Tikkas

The Ruby Meenakari Elegant Kundan Tikkas is a maang tikka from Sirini Jewellery. The maang tikka hangs on a chain along the hair parting, with a hook that anchors into the hair and a pendant that rests on the forehead. It is the piece that frames the face in almost every Indian bridal and festive look.

Handcrafted in Sirini's own Mumbai workshop — the enamel is hand-painted and fired colour by colour.

Details

• Materials: 18–22K gold plating over a brass base, with hand-painted fired Meenakari enamel — fashion/imitation jewellery, not solid gold or precious stones
• Made in: Sirini's workshop, Santacruz West, Mumbai
• Best for: weddings, sangeet and mehendi, Diwali and Navratri, 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. 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

Meenakari enamel is glass and will chip on impact, so store this piece separately rather than loose in a box. Keep away from water and perfume, and wipe with a dry soft cloth only. Plating and polish are covered by a 1-year warranty.
