Gold Jewelry
Gold is a metal that lures many. It gives the security against any
financial crisis, because of its easy liquidity, and is also used by
women for adorning themselves. Traditionally, gold has been considered
auspicious among Hindus and is regarded to be symbolic of Lakshmi, the
Goddess of Wealth.
Isn't gold just the perfect material for jewelry? It has the shimmer
that every girl loves. It is a metal and at the same time it is flexible
and can be made into just anything you want. It always stays strong.
Considering the qualities that gold exhibits, it is only right for the
ladies to go all gaga over it. Apart from the fact that the metal
dazzles, it is also worshipped in our country. There are even some days
which are considered to be very auspicious for purchasing gold like
Akshaya Tritiya, Dhanteras, Gudi Padwa, Pushyanakshatra, Gurupushyamrit,
Lakshmi Pujan, Diwali and Bhai Duj.
The love for Gold can be understood by the very look of the brides from
Hyderabad who love to flaunt wide gold necklaces and big earrings, the
way it was worn by Mughals. A bride from Kerela is mostly covered with
gold that the upper part of her dress is barely visible. A Garhwali
bride’s golden nath is almost the size of her face and the gold which
symbolises purity is used for signifying the virginity of the bride. It
shows the traditional as well as religious significance given to gold in
marriage ceremonies which is considered to be the biggest event in a
woman’s life. In fact, each piece of gold jewelry a woman wears is not
just a precious metal, but has a precious emotion attached.
Before the time the British invaded our beautiful country, it was
called the Golden Bird. Not only did we have abundance of gold in our
divine land, we also had people with hearts of gold.
And that is one thing that has not changed. So from the ancient
times, we have always had gold in our daily lives. The coins were made
of gold. Kings and queens were all found of gold and they had their
dresses and jewelry all customised. It was not only a sign of richness,
but it was also a sign of purity and happiness. And that is the reason
that gifting a gold coin for good luck is still a custom in our country.Tradition is what we value the most. Our mothers always have an
emotional story related to each single piece of gold jewelry they own.
The one huge heavy necklace she is so proud of is what her mother gave
to her on her big day, and it is the same set that, her mother gave it
to her, and the list is endless. That one beautiful piece of gold has
been in the family for generations. The bottom line is, it not gold- it
is an emotion that every Indian family is proud of.
Gold Boosts a Woman’s Confidence : Gold is her confidence and it feels right to be crazy about it. Every
woman has her inhibitions, something that she is scared of. There are
times when everyone has to face their fears. And at times like these,
she doesn't want to break. Apart from the people who love and support
her, there is always that one shiny thing in her closet reserved for
moments like these.It is incredible what a little piece of jewelry can do for you. That is
when her gold becomes her sentiment. So, it would be unjustified for
women to not fall madly in love with her gold that no matter what
supports her.
A Significant Part of a Woman’s Wedding : Big fat Indian weddings always have a story to tell. The Indian brides
are dressed from head to toe to look the best on their big day. And it
goes without saying that what flatters her most is the jewelry she
wears. Her mother swells with tears and so does the father. The little
girl they had been saving for all their lives is happy. Every eye on the
bride connects with her emotions, and who speaks for the
then-speechless bride? Yes, her gold, her jewelry.
It speaks about how hard she has worked all her life to be the woman she
always wanted to be. It speaks about the sacrifices her parents have
made, for her happiness. It boldly speaks to her man that she is an
individual who believes that there is no marriage without the heart's
connection. So, if she is leaving her life behind for him, there are
promises that he has to make. That gold then is her voice. And shouldn't
that be a reason that every Indian woman loves and adores her gold
Gold - An Auspicious Symbol : Gold is not just a shiny metal. It is a sentiment, an emotion, an
investment. Each and every Indian woman loves to have more gold to bring

religious value associated with gold is indeed enormous. The gifts that
come and the rituals followed by people of different religions,
everything involves gold. Since our childhood days, we have been taught
about the magic and importance of gold. The beauty of gold attracts the
woman right from her childhood days.It’s not craziness, but the love of Indian women for jewelry which makes

attachment developed with gold since her childhood days makes it an
integral part of all the happy moments of her life which increases her
respect for the metal even more.Though having large amount of gold shows richness and wealth of a woman
