We have some sparkling news to share! Mortantra has officially opened its doors in Chandigarh.
Bringing our store to the "City Beautiful" feels like a natural homecoming. Chandigarh is a city that celebrates both modern elegance and deep-rooted traditions much like the jewelry we create. To celebrate this new beginning, we’ve designed a flagship collection that pays homage to the vibrant, majestic spirit of Punjab.
A Tribute to the Custodians of Craft
The legendary grandeur of Punjabi jewelry didn’t just happen by chance. It was carefully shaped by two groups: the royalty who dreamed of these magnificent pieces and the artisans who spent lifetimes perfecting them.
Back in the royal courts, jewelry was more than just a fashion choice; it was a symbol of power, pride, and family history. Every piece was crafted with extreme precision, using techniques that were kept as closely guarded family secrets. Today, what we see isn't just "old-fashioned" jewelry; it is a living heritage kept alive through memory, skill, and a lot of love.
A Beautiful Blend: When Gujarat Meets Punjab
If you know Mortantra, you know our heart beats for the intricate artistry of Gujarat. We’ve always been inspired by the fine Kundan work and the colorful Meenakari that Gujarat is famous for.
With our Chandigarh launch, we are doing something truly special: blending the boldness of Punjab with the finesse of Gujarat. Think of it as a conversation between two rich cultures. We’ve taken the large, extravagant silhouettes that Punjabi jewelry is known for and added the delicate, detailed craftsmanship of Gujarati goldsmithing. It’s a mix of "grandeur" and "grace" that you won’t find anywhere else.
Extravagance in Every Detail
Our new collection is all about making a statement. We’ve taken classic Punjabi favorites and given them the Mortantra touch:
-
The Saggi Phul & Chaand Tika: These iconic headpieces are reimagined with heavy gold plating and stunning floral details.
-
The Royal Rani Haar: Long, multi-layered necklaces that make you feel like royalty the moment you put them on.
-
Pippal Patti Jhumkas: Those classic gold-leaf drops that dance when you move, updated with modern stone settings.
