Unlike articulated chain necklaces that drape loosely with gravity, the Hansuli (historically known as Khagwali) is a rigid, sculpted torque. It rests snugly in the hollow of the collarbones, gently compelling the wearer to hold her chin high with natural elegance.
Historically forged in solid sterling silver, the Hansuli was gifted by royal courts and matriarchs to young brides as an auspicious talisman of protection.
The heavy gauge 92.5 sterling silver bullion is repeatedly annealed over charcoal hearths, allowing the master smith to bend the rigid metal into an ergonomic elliptical curve that comfortably matches the contours of the human neck.
