Mangalsutra

September 29, 2010

Different parts of India have different customs and there may be some items of jewelery  that you will need to necessarily have, owing to their customary significance. Other jewelery pieces could be selected on the basis of your budget and what is in vogue. Listed below are the jewelery items that you must have if you are going to be a bride.

Mangalsutra is an auspicious thread which the groom ties around the neck of his wife at the wedding ceremony.  Mangalsutra is the symbol of being married and is worn by Hindu ladies in the greater part of Western and southern India. Traditionally, this is a long thread( mostly yellow in color) with a gold pendant. This thread symbolizes the love and attachment with which the husband and wife will be tied to each other throughout their lives. There are quite a few variations of the mangalsutra available in the market today to suit the deep as well as not-so-deep pockets.
