Gudi Padwa: A New Beginning with Gold
Gudi Padwa is considered one of the most auspicious days to begin new ventures, and buying gold or silver is believed to attract prosperity throughout the year. On this day, women love to adorn themselves in traditional Maharashtrian attire, and the most popular jewelry to buy during this festival includes the iconic Nath, a traditional nose ring, and the Mohan Mala, a beaded gold necklace symbolizing grace and tradition. Short necklaces like Chinchpeti, heavy bangles known as Tode, and the symbolic Kolhapuri Saaj, which features 21 distinct design elements, are also highly favored for their cultural significance and timeless beauty.
