Maximum India! | Part 3

More from Maximum India!
Here's even more of the gorgeously crafted jewelry from Jaipur Gem Palace

~
Do check out the rest of my Maximum India experiences here!
Enjoy!


A huge necklace with uncut emeralds and diamonds. The back of it features enamel work so the necklace can be worn backwards as well!
Boxes and cuffs inlaid with precious stones. I love the little bird with the emerald hanging from its beak!



This huge necklace was exquisite! It was inlaid with kundan work - a conglomerate of uncut stones. On the back, it was inlaid with minakari (enamel) work, so the necklace could be worn on either side.





 I like to call this the turban bling-i-fier - with emeralds, diamonds, and pearls, it's the headgear of a king!

Opals and emeralds - the perfect combo.

Maximum India! | Part 2

More from Maximum India!
This time, some of the gorgeous, drool-worthy jewelry displayed from Jaipur Gem Palace

The Gem Palace was established in 1852 by the erstwhile Kasliwal family of Jaipur. Jewellers for over eight generations, the Kasliwals even have the distinction of being court jewellers to Moghul emperors. Situated in the heart of the royal city of Jaipur, The Gem Palace is a must-visit for connossieurs of fine jewellery. From antique jewels from the coffers of Maharajas to contemporary designs studded with the precious gemstones, the shop has it all.

Take a look! 
 A ridiculously opulent necklace and headpiece - made of hundreds and hundreds of pearls and studded with diamonds and other precious gems! It was stunning to look at - the photo doesn't do it justice! 

 A diamond brooch and tassel necklace.

A beautiful minakari (enamel-inlaid) box, enamel earrings, and carved bird ring with rubies and emeralds. 


 Ruby and emerald necklace. 

Like I said, absolutely drool-worthy, and most certainly fit for a queen.
