Lakshmi Locket Jewellery

This  is the month of Ashadha as per our Calendar. The coming month is Sravana-an auspicious month for us, specially for ladies. This is the time when we worship Goddess Lakshmi and Mangala Gauri for wealth, prosperity and family well being. Ladies buy new clothes, jewellery etc. Newly married women start their "Vratha" or Pooja (special Rituals) which they have to do for 5 years.

So keeping that in view I am designing some unique pieces. Here is one of them;

This is made of sand stone beads, small gold(plated) beads and Lakshmi lockets(gold plated). I have used wire so that the necklace stays stiff and also if you see closely I have looped at the ends. I have used dori or thread at the back with rings, which can  be adjusted to suit the size of our necks. The sand stone necklace can be removed and some other creation can be added to the same dori to match your dress. I am making such changeable jewellery.

The images of  Laksmi embossed on thin gold coins  are actually traditional gold jewellery used in "KaasulaPeru". Since we cannot afford gold now, I think this is affordable.

So invite Goddess Lakshmi this Sravana Masa with this new creation.
