This brooch is shaped around a simple ritual that carries deep emotion in Indian culture. the act of applying roli and chawal on the forehead. It marks beginnings, blessings, protection, and welcome. A quiet gesture, yet powerful in what it stands for.
Crafted in brass, the brooch features a rich red enamel base that represents roli, while real rice grain motifs are embedded into the surface to echo chawal. Flowing across it is the sacred calligraphy of Siya Ram, symbolising faith, harmony, and dharma.
With its 3 cm round form, it sits beautifully on bandhgalas, blazers, sherwanis, and festive kurtas. More than an accessory, it becomes a personal talisman. a reminder of roots, rituals, and the quiet strength of tradition carried into modern dressing.
It is meant to be worn not just for style, but for what it stands for.
