Kundan
Kundan is a traditional form of Indian gemstone jewellery involving a gem set with gold foil between the stones and its mount, usually for elaborate necklaces. The method is believed to have originated in the royal courts of Rajasthan and Gujarat. It is the oldest form of jewellery made and worn in India.〔 The word ''kundan'' means highly refined gold, and a highly refined and pure form of molten gold is used.
Kundan, also known as Bikaneri or Jaipuri jewellery, is a popular variation, wherein enameling with vivid colours and designs is on the reverse, while the kundan setting is in the front. The city of Jaipur in Rajasthan has traditionally been the centre for Kundan jewellery in India.〔(Kundan Jewellery ) ''Let's Know Handicrafts of India'', by Amar Tyagi. Star Publications, 2008. ISBN 1-905863-18-7. ''p. 32''.〕
==History==
Kundan flourished under royal patronage during the Mughal era.〔 Over the years, the Kundan jewellery of the courts was successfully copied in silver in Rajasthan, Bihar and the Punjab and became popular with the common man.〔''Indian folk arts and crafts - the land and the people'', by Jasleen Dhamija. National Book Trust, India. 1970. ''p. 73''〕
It remains an integral part of the traditional bridal wedding trousseau. Traditional settings, including the thappa and ras rawa, are experiencing a revival.〔(This wedding season, gold loses sheen ) Deeksha Chopra, TNN, The Times of India, 15 November 2009.〕 Most recently, in the 2008 epic film, ''Jodhaa Akbar'', the lead character portrayed by Aishwariya Rai was extensively shown wearing Kundan jewellery, highlighting its influence among Rajasthani royalty.〔
In 2006, "American Diamond" and Kundan jewellery contributed the largest share of both market value and volume (73 per cent) in the Indian jewellery market.〔(Indian Art Jewellery Market ) Business Standard, Mumbai November 28, 2006.〕
