About This Design

Fine filigree work, made from thin twisted gold wire shaped into open patterns, is one of the oldest styles of Indian goldsmithing and gives the kada a lacy, handcrafted feel. Precise laser-cut patterns give the kada crisp detail and extra sparkle while keeping it light and comfortable.

How It Wears

The kada opens with a screw, so it can be put on without squeezing over the hand and sits closer to the wrist. 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. Screw-open styles sit closer to the wrist, so they can be a little smaller than a slip-on bangle. 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.
