About This Design
The colored enamel work, known as meenakari, is a traditional Indian art in which color is fused into the gold. It adds a festive pop of color that pairs well with bridal and festive outfits. Jalli work is a delicate lattice of cut-out patterns inspired by the carved stone screens of Indian palaces, giving the kada an airy, intricate look. The reverse design shows a different pattern on each side, so you can change the look of the kada simply by turning it.
How It Wears
The comfort-fit, slip-on design means there is no clasp to fuss with: simply slide it over your hand. Sold as a pair, they can be worn one on each wrist or stacked together with other bangles.
Finding Your Size
Bangle sizes are based on the inner diameter of the kada; the size or measurement for this piece is listed above. To check your size, tuck your thumb into your palm and measure across the widest part of your hand, or measure the inside of a kada that already fits you well. Slip-on bangles need to pass over your knuckles, so choose a size that slides on comfortably. You are always welcome to visit our Houston store to try it on.
When to Wear It
These kadas are a natural choice for weddings, sangeet and mehndi celebrations, Diwali, Navratri and Karva Chauth, and they make a treasured gift for a bride, daughter or mother.
Why 22K Gold
22K gold is 91.6% pure gold, the traditional standard for Indian jewelry, prized for its rich yellow color and lasting value. Karat 22 has been a family-owned Houston jeweler for over 40 years and offers the lowest making charges in the industry, so more of what you pay goes into the gold itself.
Care
Take your gold jewelry off before swimming, bathing or using household cleaners, and put it on after lotion and perfume. Clean it gently with warm water and mild soap, dry with a soft cloth, and store each piece separately in a soft pouch or box so pieces do not scratch each other. Avoid harsh polishing cloths on the enamel areas.
