Jewelry

got married a week ago.inter-state wedding.my parents spend close to 6 lakh rupees on weding expenses and gave me 200 sovereigns of gold as jewellery.according to our tradition,dowry is given as jewellery and not cash.he feels otherwise and constantly blames my parents and accuses me for not telling them to "do their duties towards him".he feels that they shud have given money to him in the form of cash and so living conditions would have been better now.sometimes he gets verbally abusive and he feels i am a liability.its hard to believe that this was the same guy i dated for 2 years.
he brings it up only whenever we go shopping and somehow i feel crushed when he does that.apart from that he is a very loving and caring guy and he would never hurt me.

oh man, he sounds like a jerk, ( i’m sorry to say this) this happened to a girl i knew she dated this guy for like 2 years and after the wedding he wanted money from her parents, but she just left and got an annulment from him. i think you should have discussed this before you got married, but jsut remind you husband that it is 2008 not 1893 that he is a big boy now and should support this own family. if that doesn’t work tie him to a chair and make him watch laja 8 milion times when mayima chaudry gives her speech.

I am indian male. I think that girls look sexy and nice if she wears armlet made of silver or gold tightened on her arms and beautiful fine coiled toe ring.
How many of girls have experience this jewellery piece ?
Whether u have tried it, if not then try .

girls are looking sexy when they wear diamonds……..not matter what jewellery type…anything made of by diamonds are rocking for girls.

For my wedding my parents gave me lots of jewellery almost worth a million. The problem is my mother-in-law wants to keep them…she don’t want them, but wants their custody. I don’t feel like giving it to her. My hubby keeps mum abt this, saying he can’t take any sides. He belongs to a tamil family, but I’m not. They r saying that this is a tamil tradition, that the mother-in-keeps the gold.

Is thr any tamil guys over there, who can really tell me abt this "tradition" ?? Pls help me.

Its ok, whats the fuss about? Let her keep the jewellery, its not that she is going to sell it or you cant have it back, just ask her whenever you want to wear the jewellery. She will be happy and you will be happy aswell. By the way if you feel like you are not able to fulfill your mother inlaws expectation, you and your hubby can always move out and live on your own. By the way I am not Tamil.

Often, bangles are mentally associated with India. They existed as popular garments of jewelry for quite some time. Bangles come in a wide array of appearances, and are often made of gold or other precious metals. Sometimes, they are even glass. Lac bangles are also very popular in India. It is not a wonder that choosing which bangle to wear on a special occasion can present a chore for some people.

Glass bangles look great, especially with casual wear. The multicolored ones match fabulously with jeans and a clean, nice top. Flat soled Indian shoes add a unique and wonderful touch. When worn with sarees (Indian dress for women), these bangles look terrific.

Black tie events and casual parties serve as great opportunities to flaunt glass bangles too. They subtly add to many outfits, complimenting them spectacularly. For formal wear, an extra large set on both hands goes well with minimalist jewelry. Or, be the center of attention at any gathering with bold and brightly colored bangles!

You can also wear glass bangles with casual wear. Like perhaps multicolored ones with jeans and a nice top, along with flat soled Indian shoes. Glass bangles look wonderful with pencil skirts, pants and suits. Care should be taken, however, as they may hurt if they break.

Moreover, the ideal bangle matches the width of the wearer’s wrist. Bangles that are too tight may block blood flow; those too loose will slip off. Women with large, wide wrists should choose narrow width bangles.

Pearl bangles look great with dark suits. While appearing elegant, they also fit most budgets nicely.

Silver and gold bangles are the favorites of every woman. Of course one can choose the traditional gold bangles, which always look great and classic. Gold bangles often feature either golden or silver inlays. Some have various semi precious or precious stones (such as diamonds and rubies). Naturally these bangles are on the expensive side, but many consider them a wise investment. Daily use is not recommended as the expensive stones on those can chip off. Simple cut or solid gold bangles are more suited for everyday wear, as well as performing normal household chores.

Nowadays, “Choories” (circular wrist bangles) are also very popular. They commonly come in gold and silver.It is possible to wear metal bangles made of, for example, silver on any occasion; they match with most dresses. Lac bangles are cool; they feature beautiful designs that can make every day special.

Wood bangles can also be used as an alternative to the metal bangles. They are are available in various designs, wood finishes and styles. They look sleek, and come in bright colors. Terracotta bangles also offer the appeal of being chic and exotic. Ultimately, there is no reason to become bored with bangle jewelry.

Hi All,
I am wearing gold on my wedding. short necklace and aaram (long necklace)
O’m planning to wear Temple jewellery for nethichutti (forehead piece), the one that you were on your arm’s top portion and ottiyaanam (the waist band)

will it look odd? that I have matched temple jewellery and gold together???
pls let me know…
Also, if I wear a temple jewellery nethichutty.. should I match it with temple jewellery earrings only?
P/s my wedding sari is MAROON

#2
for my reception I’m wearing white stoned necklace and gold long necklace
my Reception sari is COPPER SULPHATE BLUE
What color nethi chutti should I wear?
What color earrrings will match?

I think that gold and maroon look quite nice together for a warm tone, and the blue and white for a cooler tone. Try going for only one necklace though, not two. You don’t want to overdo it. Indian jewelry is very rich and exquisite on its own, so you don’t need to mix it with anything else. The more you decide to wear, the simpler your accents should be. Too much will just over power you and take away form your natural beauty.

That scheme enable people to declare there unaccounted income
and convert into white money.The scheme was introduced by our present Prime Minister Mr.Manmohan Singh.He was then Finance Minister.The one of the prospectus/attraction of that scheme was that -One who declare money,Gold or Silver,his indentity will be kept as secret and confidental.If any enquiry to be done in future regarding VDIS,it would be done by Commissoner or Assistant Commissioner in top secret manner. I declared some Gold under VDIS without in the knowledge of my family.The documention regarding VDIS was done by my C.A.. Even my C.A. sent the Jeweller at my house, to whom I sold the Gold Jewellery and took the bill. Now VDIS scam was emerged and Commissoner ordered the enquiry. Many people got the notice.Now his Junior ITO officals summoning and harrassing us.But main probs,which is bothering me and other people,why junior staff of ITO involved?I am living seperately,because my family claim that I cheated them.

Because the Commissioner and other higher authorities have delegated their powers to Junior ITO and for details you have to consult your C.A. / Income Tax Consultant.

For example If you look at West Indian men you notice them with more jewellery on than African men for example gold bangle, chains, hoop earings. But i have also notice this with alot of Indian men in India because Gold is quite common wear in Indian culture for both men & women.

Could this be because all of the East Indian that went to to West Indies as Indentured Labourers in the mid 1800s from India who brought their jewellrey culture among them with their hindu culture of Ganja chillum and Sadhu drealocks and their curry goat and roti in Jamaica or around the West Indies.
Because to me it very Indian culture not African?

And then you hear the bling culture in Hip Hop, who the jamaicans from the west indies broght this from East Indians from India. because if you look at an average Afriacn man like a Nigerian, Sudanese, or Somalian they wont be wearing gold bracelets, bangles, chains or hoop earings?

I dont get what your trying to get at…you have answered your own question.

"Large deposits of gold in the Gold coast, now called Ghana made the use of this precious metal an integral part of life. From headbands to necklaces, earrings and arm bands and rings, the jewelers used gold heavily. It was even claimed that the King’s clothes were sprinkled with Gold dust. Many of the tribes in Ghana today are actively selling gold jewelry.
Up in the North of Africa, the Tuaregs are known for their distinctive African jewelry designs. This nomadic tribe adorn jewelry made of intricately designed silver pendants and wood beads."
