The Arohi Silver Navratna Guttapusalu Necklace
This is a beautiful guttapusalu studded with navratna stones. The guttapusalu is decorated with natural pearls. The Gutta Pusalu is a classic design from Andhra Pradesh and is named so because the necklace is fringed with bunches of small pearls very similar to “a shoal of small fish” (gutta). Pusalu means “beads” and this design originated in areas close to the ancient pearl fisheries along the Coromandel coast of India.
Handcrafted in Sterling Silver (92.5%) with techniques used to craft temple jewellery for centuries, this necklace is a heirloom piece.
Note: A tassel is provided at the end for adjusting the length. Silver links or chain can be provided at an extra cost.
