Kaluthooru

This is a wonderful jewellery that the Chettiar bride ( a wealthy community in TamilNadu) wear.

One jewellery that I am always in awe of is this.

The article is in Ganoksin and the link is below

Kaasu thodu (coin earrings)

I have already written about Kaasu maalai, a long chain interlinked by gold coins that has a Lakshmi Goddess printed on it. This is a earring that belongs to that set.

Now we get bangles too with coins and other designs and stones interspersed. No end to creativity.
