Meenakari is the art of enamelling metal surfaces with vivid colours — a craft that has adorned Indian royalty for centuries and remains central to kundan and polki jewellery today.
The Process
Artisans carve recesses into gold, fill them with coloured enamel, and fire the piece multiple times to achieve depth and durability.
Regional Styles
Jaipur is renowned for bold reds and greens, while Varanasi favours pastel tones. Each region brings its own palette and motifs to this living heritage.
