FAQs

1. Why is there black Moti in mangalsutra?

The black beads, or "moti," in a mangalsutra are traditionally believed to ward off evil and protect the marriage from negative influences. They are an integral part of this sacred jewellery piece, symbolising protection and well-being. 

2. How do I choose the perfect diamond mangalsutra to match my bridal outfit?

When selecting a diamond mangalsutra, consider the neckline of your bridal outfit. For higher necklines, opt for a longer mangalsutra with a bold pendant. For lower necklines, a shorter, more delicate design works best. Ensure your outfit doesn’t overpower the mangalsutra for it to stand out. Match the design elements and diamond shapes with the overall theme of your outfit to create a cohesive look. 

3. Are diamond mangalsutras suitable for daily wear?

Yes, diamond mangalsutras, studded in stunning lab grown diamonds are suitable for daily wear. Opt for designs that are comfortable and not too elaborate for everyday use. Minimalistic and classic designs are all-time favourites and particularly well-suited for daily wear.
