Armlet in Silver : traditional design

Here is a very traditional design of an armlet which has a  motif of Goddess Lakshmi with what we call lakshmi kaash (kaasu in telugu and kaash in tamil, meaning coins).  Worn on the upper arm, mostly by Maharanis of the yesteryears, or dancers even today... I am hoping to wear it to a wedding some day. You could wear one of the less ornate ones easily but being an ornate one I am looking for an occasion.


This armlet studded with a few rubies adds contrast to the silver.
