There’s a reason why chandbalis always win favour when it comes to picking jewellery for a wedding. The moon-shaped earrings are an ideal blend of heritage and style, and make a mighty statement—even when they are all the jewellery you’re wearing. “Chandbalis have been cherished since centuries. They have been worn by the Mughals and the Nizams and are a part of India’s rich heritage. Today, these traditional pieces have become classics,” says Sangeeta Dewan, principal designer, Zoya.
Another reason for you to consider them a must-have in your wedding jewellery collection? Their sheer versatility. “Chandbalis can be worn with ethnic wear or even with Indo-western ensembles,” says Dewan. Sunil Datwani, founder, Gehna Jewellers, agrees. “They are a classic accessory to wear to a wedding, given that they go with every ensemble. You can even pair them with a Western silhouette to add some fusion to your outfit,” he says.
