Gulnaar (गुलनार) Neckpiece

Description

Gulnaar is a statement in colour, craft and heritage. This handcrafted neckpiece brings together deep green beads, vivid red accents and intricate silver-toned detailing in a richly layered silhouette.

At its centre, rows of slightly oval green stones create a striking geometric panel, finished with an intricately detailed antique-inspired pendant and a dramatic jhumka-style drop. The interplay of jewel-toned colour, textured metalwork and cascading details gives Gulnaar the presence of a true statement piece.

Rooted in the richness of Indian heritage jewellery yet designed for the modern woman, Gulnaar transitions effortlessly from an elegant saree to contemporary occasionwear. It is maximal, expressive and unapologetically distinctive.

Good to Know

• Keep away from water, perfume, lotions and excessive moisture.
• Put your neckpiece on last, after perfumes and beauty products have dried.
• Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing.
• Store separately in its pouch or box to avoid scratches and tangling.
• Keep away from direct sunlight and humid environments for prolonged periods.
• Avoid harsh jewellery cleaners or polishing products, as these may affect the finish and detailing.
• Every House of Evia piece is handcrafted, so subtle variations in texture, finish, colour and detailing are natural.

Wear It With

Wear it with a solid-colour silk saree when you want the greens and reds to take centre stage. For a more contemporary look, style it with a structured ivory, black or deep-burgundy outfit and keep the rest of your jewellery restrained.

For maximalists, layer it over a simple neckline and let the long pendant become the focal point of the entire look.

A Few Questions

Is the silver?

The sculptural metal elements have a brass base with a real silver coating. This gives the piece the look and character of silver while retaining the strength and versatility of its brass base.

Is Gulnaar handcrafted?

Yes. Gulnaar is handcrafted, and small variations in finish, texture and detailing are part of the character of an artisanal piece.

Can I wear it with a saree?

Absolutely. Gulnaar works particularly well with silk, handloom and solid-colour sarees, especially in ivory, cream, black, burgundy, rust or jewel tones.
