Indian brides are always spoilt with choices when it comes to selecting their wedding day jewellery, our latest favorite being the Navratna Jewellery. While the traditional satlada haars and gold jewellery can never go out of style, how about experimenting with these gorgeous colourful jewellery pieces?
Wondering what Navratna jewellery is all about? Well, Navratna is a sanskrit term for ‘ nine gems’ and therefore, these jewellery pieces are crafted using those nine gems making them stand out from the rest of the jewellery collection. The combination of these nine gems is said to be astrologically auspicious for Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and Buddists. Generally, navratna jewellery consists of the following 9 high born and flawless gems.
- Ruby for Surya (Sun),
- Pearl for Chandra (Moon),
- Red Coral for Mangala (Mars),
- Emerald for Budha (Mercury),
- Yellow Sapphire for Bṛhaspati (Jupiter),
- Diamond for Shukra (Venus),
- Blue sapphire for Shani (Saturn),
- Hessonite for Rahu (the ascending lunar node)
- Cat’s Eye for Ketu (the descending lunar node)
