India’s vastness is reflected in its celebration of spring and harvest. The festival, though diverse in name and traditions, all share the common thread of expressing gratitude for nature’s bounty and welcoming a prosperous new year.

In Tamil Nadu, it is known as Pongal, a festival thanking the Sun God for a bountiful harvest. Further north, Maharashtra ushers it as a New Year with Gudi Padwa. In Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, this festival is known as Ugadi, marking the beginning of the lunisolar calendar.

Donning traditional attire during these festivals is seen as a mark of respect for the customs and traditions passed down through generations. It’s a way to honour the past and celebrate the continuity of culture.

With the cultural attire, traditional jewellery plays a significant role in these harvest and spring festivals across India. Here’s how:

  • Cultural Identity and Unity: Wearing traditional jewellery and clothes acts as a visual representation of cultural heritage. It is a way to celebrate the shared identity of your community.
  • Symbol of Prosperity: Gold jewellery for women and men is a popular choice that represents wealth and abundance. Wearing or gifting traditional jewellery during Pongal, Ugadi, or Gudi Padwa is seen as inviting good fortune and a prosperous year ahead.
  • Cultural Connection: Traditional designs and motifs on the jewellery connect the wearer to their heritage. Adorning them strengthens cultural identity and keeps traditions alive.
