Evoking golden, red

charming diamantes work will showcases royal style and elegance. Elegant
bangles with fine design for party wear choices. Lac or Lacquer is an
exotic handcrafted tribal jewelry from Rajasthan India, which is now the fashion rage of urban areas. This
traditional craft has been passed down through generations. Therefore the skill
of the artist still produces beautiful authentic Lac/Lakh pieces. Lac is the
scarlet resinous secretion from a Lac-producing insect known as Laccifer lacca.
They are cultivated to make Lac Lakh
jewelry. These plant-sucking insects colonize branches on host trees and
secrete the scarlet resinous pigment. The coated branches are then cut and harvested
as sticklac. The harvested sticklac is crushed, sieved and washed to remove
impurities. The end product called shellac is further heated to remove more
impurities.

fashion trend is to match and wear the imitation jewelry designs with expensive
jewelry items. For example, matching lakh bangles with gold necklace is a great idea and one can think of many such ideas.

The process of making the Lac/Lakh bangles is slightly different. The inner
diameter of the bangle is made up of metal. The size and width of the metal is
decided depending on the artists design. Lac is then mixed, kneaded, hammered
and heated repeatedly to get the desired consistency.

The dough is then rolled and shaped over the metal and
fused to add strength to the bangle. Bangles
are then embellished with beads, mirrors and rhinestones for that sensual look.

browsing through an array of colorful
