Immerse yourself in the divinity and grandeur of traditional temple artistry with our Elegant Kemp Lakshmi Floral Carved U Shape Vanki, a timeless treasure handcrafted for brides and connoisseurs of classical Indian jewellery. Designed to reflect the resplendence of South Indian temple aesthetics, this exquisite vanki seamlessly blends spirituality with festive elegance, making it an impeccable choice for weddings, festivals, and cultural celebrations.
This U-shaped vanki (armlet) features a majestic triple-panel design, crowned by a central motif of Goddess Lakshmi seated gracefully on a lotus throne. Symbolising abundance, prosperity, and feminine power, the idol is flanked by intricately carved floral vines and traditional motifs that celebrate heritage and craftsmanship. Each panel is richly detailed in antique gold tone and adorned with shimmering American Diamond (AD) stones for a regal sparkle that catches the light with every movement.
The vibrant Kemp stones in hues of deep ruby red, emerald green, and rich magenta are masterfully arranged in flower clusters, adding a burst of color to the antique gold finish. The floral blooms above each Lakshmi panel evoke an aura of sacred festivity, making this vanki a divine accessory for traditional sarees, silk lehengas, and bridal ensembles. The two side motifs mirror the central one in grace, forming a harmonious and symmetrical composition that encircles the upper arm in a goddess-like embrace.
What sets this temple-style vanki apart is the finesse in every detail — from the delicate lotus petal patterns at the base to the swirling filigree that wraps around the floral settings. The sleek yet sturdy frame curves gently around the arm, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. The golden finish has a subtle matte touch, enhancing its antique charm while remaining lightweight and wearable for long hours during ceremonies and festive rituals.
This piece is ideal for pairing with other temple ornaments such as harams, bangles, or an opulent maang-tikka, allowing for a complete goddess-inspired look. It also complements outfits enhanced with zari embroidery, kanjeevaram borders, or pattu silks, elevating the bridal aura to its full radiance.
