Kundan Mehri

Light, colourful and easy to wear, the mehri is a delicate head chain that rests along the hairline, for days when you want a little traditional sparkle without a heavy rakdi or matha patti.

Design details

• Round link motifs alternating ruby-red, emerald-green and clear kundan stones
• Each stone framed by a ring of small white pearls
• Gold-tone links with a hook clasp

How to wear it

Place the chain across your head just behind the hairline and secure each end in your hair with its hook or a small bobby pin, just above the ears. It looks lovely with open hair or soft waves, as in our photos, and just as good with a low bun or braid. Wear it for mehendi, haldi, Teej, Gangaur and festive pujas, on its own or with a matching kundan necklace set.

Care

Imitation jewellery stays bright longest when kept dry. Put it on after perfume and make-up, wipe it with a soft dry cloth after wearing, and store it in its pouch. Read our full care guide.
