Hasti Heritage Kada | Carved 22kt Gold-Plated Nakashi Bangle with Elephant-Mouth Mohora & Ruby Accents (Set of 2)

Capture the rhythmic cadence of a royal procession with a piece that honors the sacred bond between nature and sovereignty. This hand-engraved kada is a masterclass in narrative metalwork, designed for the individual who seeks jewelry that serves as both an architectural statement and a silent keeper of heritage.

Design Distinctions

• Carved Gaja Elephant-Mouths: The bangle is anchored by two facing elephant (Gaja) heads, acting as ornate Mohora (finials) rendered with extraordinary detail that captures life-like skin textures.

• Deeply Engraved Nakashi Shank: The circumference is adorned with a continuous, deeply engraved Nakashi vine pattern, featuring blooming floral motifs and scrolled foliage.

• Hand-Set Ruby & Emerald Accents: The elephant crowns and trunks are accented with ruby-pink and emerald-green stones, while a central floral medallion adds a focal point of ceremonial color.

• Antique Sculptural Casting: The 22kt gold plating is finished with a sophisticated matte-antique patina, highlighting the shadows within the carved engravings to create a sense of aged grandeur.

• Architectural Jali Interior: The inner profile of the kada features a delicate honeycomb Jali framework, ensuring a lightweight feel without compromising the piece’s bold, structural integrity.

How to Wear It

• The Avant-Garde Nomadic Drape: Pair this with a pleated, asymmetric tunic (Copper/Burnt Ochre) worn with wide-leg culottes featuring raw-edged silk appliqué.

• The Imperial Minimalist: Style the bangle with a monochromatic ivory Chikankari sherwani-jacket and a fluid crushed-silk sharara.

• The Modernist Parsi Gara: Contrast the jewelry against a structured, mid-length waistcoat (Slate Blue) featuring delicate white hand-embroidery over tapered metallic trousers.
