The Art of Meenakari — India's Painted Jewellery
Discover the 500-year-old tradition of Meenakari enamel work that transforms gold into living paintings.
The Maang Tikka, worn at the hairline parting, is one of the most face-framing pieces in Indian jewellery. Choosing the right style for your face shape can dramatically enhance your bridal or festive look.
Round Face
Choose a long, vertical Maang Tikka — a single strand with a pendant that extends down the forehead. This creates the illusion of length and adds definition to round faces.
Oval Face
Congratulations — almost every style works for oval faces. Statement round Tikkas with floral or medallion designs are particularly flattering.
Heart-Shaped Face
Opt for wider Tikkas that draw attention to the centre of the forehead rather than the temples. Chandbali-inspired Tikkas work beautifully.
Square Face
Curved or circular Tikka designs soften angular jaw lines. Avoid geometric or angular Tikka shapes that mirror the face's natural angles.
Diamond Face
Narrow Tikkas with delicate pendants balance the wider cheekbone area. A simple teardrop or floral design works perfectly.
