The Loukya Silver Coin Necklace Set (Red)
An iconic design, this light-weight traditional Kasu malai necklace is crafted by weaving gold-dipped silver coins into maroon thread. This is a reversible necklace which has a different design on both sides. On one side the coins carry the image of goddess Laxmi (seated on a lotus) and display a single row of kempu stones; on the other side we can see a beautiful parrot motif. The skill and craftsmanship exhibited in this piece are truly amazing.
Crafted using techniques used in South Indian antique jewellery in Sterling Silver (92.5), the necklace has been gold-dipped to perfection. This piece is also available in the antique silver-finish.
The set includes matching coin-shaped ear-studs.

The necklace is beautifully crafted with intricate details. The reversible design is a nice touch, showing both Laxmi and the parrot motif. The gold dip gives it a rich look without being heavy. I love the ear-studs too, they match perfectly.

The quality feels premium. The silver is smooth and the coins are securely woven. I appreciate the traditional design with a modern twist. Slight variation in coin size is normal for handmade pieces.
