How to Style Them

Green is the quieter half of the red-and-green pairing that runs through South Indian dressing. It reads rich rather than bright, and works against cream, mustard, rust and maroon. Because the gold tone here is aged rather than bright, it does not compete with real gold worn alongside it — useful if you are layering with a family piece. The Lakshmi motif is the signature of South Indian temple jewellery, traditionally worn for weddings, classical dance and temple visits.

Perfect For

Weddings, temple visits and festive occasions — the antique gold and green combination pairs beautifully with traditional silk sarees.

Care

Keep them away from water, perfume and lotion — those are what dull the finish fastest. A quick wipe with a dry cloth after each wear and storage in a pouch, away from other pieces that could rub against them, is all the upkeep these need.
