The choker is beautifully crafted with a detailed peacock motif and the goddess Lakshmi adds a spiritual touch. The oxidised silver gives it a rich, vintage look. I wore it with a saree and it looked elegant. The kempu stones are well set and the pendant is sturdy.

The craftsmanship is impressive, especially the intricate details of the peacock and the goddess. The gemstones are visible and well placed. I’ve worn it both as a necklace and as a Vanki, and both styles work well.

The necklace arrived in perfect condition. The oxidised finish is unique and stands out. It’s a bit heavier than expected, but that adds to its presence. I would recommend it to anyone looking for traditional South Indian inspired jewelry.
