When you come to the store and finalize the design, it goes through various steps.
- The Karigar, who makes the Gold-base, is given instructions on how it will be created, and all the specific technical information is provided to him.
He then sets the raw pieces on the wax mold; if any changes are needed, it is done in that step. Then the final Ghat is made after approval.
- After the base is created, the Jadia is asked to select the raw materials (Polki or Precious Stone) for the Ghat.
He does the Jadtar process of fitting the stones into the Ghat using Gold. The initial process is adding Surma (a sticky powder made by grinding black rock into a mixer) to the Ghat. Then the stones are fitted onto it with Gold's help, filling the materials into the Ghat is called Kundan. They use Silver or color foils to get the exact color of the
stones.
Those foils are stuck to the back of the stone, known as Bidai, and the embedding process starts. The Jadia gives his artistic touch to it as the last part of the process is called Chillai. The design in Kundan is called Cutting. Cutting is time-consuming and provides a unique look to the generations to come.
- After the Jadau work is completed, another Artisan comes into the scenario, wherein he ties the Jhumkis with the help of gold strings, also called Laria-tar, onto the holes (Nakas) at the end of the Ghat.
These Jhumkis are either Pearls, Gold, Precious Gems, or a mixture of these three types.
- The last step involves Paroni and making Chhedyu or the strings that hold the necklace together. In Paroni, there are two types of thread- one is Nylon which is machine-made, and the other one is made of Silk.
The silk thread is hand-made in which the karigar rolls the thread on his thighs to strengthen the yarn. It is a long process, but these strings last forever. These threads are bonded (Rolled) together and tied into a golden cord. This cord is attached to the endpoints of the Ghat.
Finally, final touches are given to the Jewelry piece and then delivered to you.
Understanding how your Jewelry is made will increase its value of it and the person who has created it. Jewelry-making is an art, and we all should appreciate it.
