Diamonds have always been associated with Bling and Sparkle with facets, denoting clarity and brilliance.
There is also the Uncut Diamond which offers a more subtle sense of diamond glamour for those that prefer the natural look.
In India, kundan jewellery is an antique art form of hand made gold Indian jewellery dating back to the days when the Kings of Rajastan ruled. Kundan is highly refined gold and the kundan setting is done without claws (originating prior to the pre- claw jewellery of the 19th century). The technique involves making a hollow recess in the gold piece then surfacing it with a mineral and embedding uncut Polki diamonds with refined kundan gold foils which keep the stones embedded without claws. Polki diamonds are uncut and rough reflecting an Indian antique look .
Today both Tiffany and De Beers with their Talisman Collection have hopped on the uncut diamond fashion wagon featuring rough uncut diamonds in exquisite pieces. Rough diamonds are increasing in their appeal in the West for its natural quality along with its exclusive, subtle luxury look. Polki uncut diamonds have ruled the Indian fashion scene from antiquity to modernity. For beautiful dispalys of Polki uncut diamonds visit Mangatrai Jewellers and Bagga Jewellers.
