Utpala Emerald Polki Choker Set

The blooms repeat across the piece at a steady interval, each one shaped before it is set. The set works because the earring is a fragment of the choker, not a separate design placed beside it. The surface is close-set: 362 emeralds with almost no metal showing between them.

The stones are set the jadau way: gold softened over heat and worked up around each one, with no claw and no solder showing. The order matters, because once a stone is bedded the metal beside it cannot be reheated. 18KT gold holds the settings rigid where 22KT would move.

18KT Yellow Gold. 79.01g. Emeralds: 362 pcs, 34.64 cts. Polki diamonds. Made to order.
