Jadau Necklace Jaipur — Taparia Jewels


A Jadau necklace from Jaipur represents the highest form of traditional Indian goldsmithing. At Taparia Jewels, we craft each Jadau necklace in our C-Scheme, Jaipur workshop using ruby, emerald, and pearl inlays embedded directly into 18K BIS hallmarked gold. We have handcrafted these pieces since 1986. Therefore, every necklace we make carries centuries-old technique combined with four decades of our family's craftsmanship.
Jadau jewellery is experiencing a strong revival in 2026, with brides rediscovering the royal feel of this heritage technique for palace-themed weddings and traditional ceremonies. Consequently, demand for authentic, manufacturer-direct Jadau necklaces has grown significantly among brides who want genuine craftsmanship rather than mass-produced alternatives.
What Makes a Jadau Necklace Special
The Jadau technique involves embedding precious stones directly into pure gold without any soldering. This method has been practised by Rajasthani goldsmiths for generations, and it remains unmatched in creating jewellery with genuine royal opulence. Furthermore, because no heat or soldering is involved, the gold retains its purity and the gemstones remain secure within hand-shaped foil cells.
A Jadau necklace differs fundamentally from machine-made jewellery. Each piece takes considerable time and skill, often involving multiple karigars who specialise in different stages — stone selection, gold shaping, setting, and finishing. Therefore, every Jadau necklace becomes a one-of-a-kind heirloom rather than a mass-produced item.
At Taparia Jewels, our master karigars have refined this technique across decades. Consequently, our Kundan Meena Jadau jewellery reflects both historical authenticity and contemporary wearability — heavy in craftsmanship but balanced in comfort.
Popular Jadau Necklace Variations We Craft
Ruby Jadau Necklace
The ruby Jadau necklace features deep red ruby inlays set across a gold framework, creating a bold and regal appearance similar to our Ruby Polki Ring collection. This variation suits brides seeking a powerful, statement-making centrepiece for wedding ceremonies and receptions.
Emerald Jadau Necklace
The emerald Jadau necklace pairs rich green emeralds with traditional gold work, much like our popular Emerald Polki Choker. This combination has become one of the most requested bridal looks in 2026, offering a striking visual contrast against ivory and red bridal outfits.
Pearl Jadau Necklace
The pearl Jadau necklace brings a softer, more graceful appearance. Multi-strand pearl arrangements combined with Jadau pendant work create old-world sophistication, perfect for brides who want heritage styling without overly bold colour contrast.
How We Craft Our Jadau Necklace in Jaipur
Our craftsmen begin every Jadau necklace by hand-selecting gemstones — rubies, emeralds, or pearls depending on the design. They examine each stone for colour, shape, and how it will sit within the gold framework. Furthermore, only stones meeting our quality standard move into production.
The setting process involves pressing each gemstone into pure gold foil cells, shaped entirely by hand at room temperature. This traditional method, detailed further in our Polki Diamond guide, allows craftsmen complete control over how each stone catches light. Consequently, a Jadau necklace develops a depth and richness that machine-set jewellery cannot replicate.
Many of our Jadau necklaces also feature reverse-side Meenakari enamel work, adding a hidden layer of artistry visible when the necklace moves. Additionally, the gold framework uses 18K BIS hallmarked gold throughout, ensuring certified purity in every piece.
Jadau Necklace Jaipur — Who Buys This Piece
Our Jadau necklace attracts brides and collectors who specifically seek heritage authenticity over modern alternatives.
First, brides planning palace-themed or traditional Rajasthani weddings choose Jadau necklaces as their centrepiece, pairing beautifully with heavily embroidered Banarasi or velvet outfits. This pairing has become especially popular for 2026 weddings embracing royal aesthetics.
Second, NRI brides and international buyers seek authentic Jadau craftsmanship that is increasingly difficult to find outside Jaipur. They trust manufacturer-direct sourcing for both authenticity and value, similar to buyers of our bridal jewellery collection.
Additionally, many buyers purchase Jadau necklaces as multi-generational heirlooms, intended to be passed down rather than worn only once. Therefore, the investment value of genuine Jadau craftsmanship extends well beyond a single wedding day.

Frequently Asked Questions — Jadau Necklace Jaipur
What is the difference between Jadau and Polki jewellery?
Jadau refers to the setting technique — embedding gemstones into gold without soldering. Polki refers specifically to uncut natural diamonds. The two are often combined, as explained in our Kundan Meena Jadau guide, where Polki diamonds are set using the Jadau technique alongside coloured gemstones.
Which gemstone is best for a Jadau necklace — ruby, emerald, or pearl?
Each suits a different bridal vision. Ruby creates bold, regal drama. Emerald offers rich, striking contrast for grand occasions. Pearl provides graceful, old-world sophistication. Therefore, at Taparia Jewels, we help you choose based on your outfit colour and wedding theme.
How long does it take to make a custom Jadau necklace?
A custom Jadau necklace typically takes 20 to 30 working days due to the intricate hand-setting process. Furthermore, we share progress updates via WhatsApp throughout production.
