Kundan is traditional Indian gemstone jewelry, a method of gem setting in a jewellery piece, consisting of inserting gold foil between the stones. Jadau Jewellery is also the only jewellery which is totally Handmade and Handcrafted by old craftsmen of India. After the gold sheet (Patra) has been prepared, the next step comes to shape the frame of the Jewellery. With the help of gold only, gold sheet is soldered with side walls by giving heat.
