The variation in transparency and "silk" within the stones suggests they are natural emeralds. Necklace Construction: The strand is finished with a Dori (a traditional braided cord), usually made of silk or zari (metallic thread). Closure: It uses a sliding knot or "ghundi" system. This allows the wearer to adjust the length from a tight choker to a longer necklace. The decorative tassels at the end are a signature element of traditional Indian jewelry. The Bracelet Gemstones: These are faceted ruby beads. The deep pigeon-blood red color is characteristic of rubies used in classic Vedic or Rajasthani-style jewelry. Cords: The bracelet is also set on a thick, matching silk cord with an adjustable sliding knot, which is common for "Mala" style bracelets meant for daily wear or religious significance.
