The creation of kundan jewellery is labor-intensive and involves multiple artisans. Stones are placed in a gold foil base using a unique setting technique, which is the hallmark of Kundan jewellery making. The process begins with Ghaat, where the skeletal framework is shaped. Next is Paadh, the step where the gold base is filled with lac. Followed by the Khudai, the engraving of designs into the base. Meenakari, or enameling, is often done on the reverse side for added beauty. Finally, stones are delicately set into the design using kundan (pure molten gold) and then polished to perfection.

Three Ways Kundan Stones Are Used for Jewellery Making

  1. Traditional Gold Kundan Work: Involves using 24K pure gold as the base, making it one of the most expensive forms. The stones are set using traditional foil-based methods and are usually accompanied by meenakari work at the back.
  2. Silver-Based Kundan: To make kundan jewellery more accessible, artisans also use sterling silver or silver alloy as a base, which significantly reduces the cost while retaining visual elegance.
  3. Imitation or Artificial Kundan: Perfect for budget-conscious buyers, this involves using copper or brass alloy as a base with synthetic stones. These pieces mimic the appearance of real kundan but are lighter and more affordable.
