The Mughal emperors conquered most of India, and as a result, their influence extended
well beyond North India.
Following the Mughals, their style of jewellery-making was carried forward and indulged
in by the successive Indian rulers as well.
This art gave birth to unique jewelry pieces studded with chunky gemstones and
enamelled with motif designs.
Royal family members and people of high rank proudly displayed such jewelry all over
their bodies, from jeweled turbans and head-jewelry to thick-set toe rings.
Emperors and empresses as well as courtiers and other people of high ranks were adorned
with heavy jewelry beset with massive stones and beads.
