The Thushi choker is designed to sit snugly around the neck, featuring closely packed, spherical gold-toned beads arranged in a dense, structured pattern. Originating from Kolhapur, this necklace reflects the bold yet refined aesthetic of Maharashtrian jewelry and is traditionally handcrafted.
At the center lies an ornate kemp stone pendant, typically set with deep red stones and occasionally accented with green highlights, inspired by temple jewelry motifs. The pendant adds a regal focal point, beautifully contrasting with the warm gold finish of the Thushi beads.
Delicate pearl beads are used as borders or dangling accents around the pendant, lending softness and balance to the bold structure of the choker. The necklace is secured with an adjustable thread or hook, often finished with decorative tassels.
Rich in cultural significance, the Kolhapuri Thushi choker with a kemp pendant and pearl beads is a timeless adornment, traditionally worn with Paithani or Nauvari sarees during weddings, festivals, and classical dance performances.
