Elegant Shine Pink Maangtikka

The Elegant Shine Pink Maang Tikka is a maang tikka from Sirini Jewellery in pink Kundan, mirror-set flat rather than domed. 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 resin-set by hand in the Kundan technique.

Details

• Materials: 18–22K gold plating over a brass base, with hand-set pink Kundan and glass stones — crafted as fine fashion jewellery, not fine/solid gold jewellery
• 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 flat setting sits close to the forehead and photographs cleanly. Pair it with a necklace set in the same stone colour.

Care

Keep the pink Kundan of this tikka away from water, perfume and sweat, because damp that creeps behind the setting leaves the stone dull. Slip it on after your hair and make-up are done, take it off before anything else and wipe with a dry soft cloth. Give it its own pouch so the pink stones never rub against harder pieces.
