Meenakari (Enamel Work)

Meenakari is a traditional Indian craftsmanship that involves decorating jewelry and ornaments with colorful enamel designs. This technique uses finely carved metal surfaces, often gold or silver, which are coated with vibrant glass-like colors through a process of heating and fusing. The intricate patterns and colors created with meenakari enhance the beauty and durability of the piece. Originating from Persia and India, meenakari reflects skilled artistry and cultural heritage, making jewelry more visually striking and unique. It’s valued for its detailed craftsmanship, vivid colors, and the precision required to blend beautiful design with durable enamel work.
