Gold Jewellery

GoldGold- The women of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Maharashtra are great sticklers for gold. This shiny metal is considered auspicious, not to mention a status symbol. Even the humblest bride down south has some gold in her trousseau.Handcrafted gold jewellery is still very much the norm though machine-made trinkets are fast catching on.
