The Motimala
Handcrafted in Jaipur · Est. 1897The motimala — the pearl garland — is among the oldest forms of Indian jewellery. It predates the court tradition, the temple tradition, and every trend that has claimed to reinvent it. It keeps outlasting them all for the same reason: it is simply correct.
A double-strand of seed pearls with small green accent beads woven throughout. From the strand, gold charm pendants hang — small motif drops, each carrying white Kundan polki work, lab-grown green and red stone accents, each charm different. 925 sterling silver, 22K gold plating. Anti-tarnish e-coated.
Gemstone Wisdom. Pearl — the Chandramani of the Vedic tradition — worn in a strand close to the body is said to bring the wearer into full presence: calm, luminous, completely herself. Worn through the day, the pearl strand is less jewellery and more companion.
Style Tip: Layer with a longer necklace for a stacked festive look, or wear alone with a statement earring. Light enough for a full day — from morning to evening function. This necklace does not require an occasion; it creates one.
