Maharashtrian choker / Neck peice

Today's  post is about  traditional Maharashtrian jewellery piece Vajratik . Vajratik is a beautiful combination  of Jondhale mani and Krushna Lila Nakshi inside the zig zag  shape design.  Artisans from Kolahapur are famous in making  this kind of  jewellery. This kind of jewellery is made  with the help of an  traditional die and making  the hollow mani's needs much skill .
