Exhibition of Indian Princes & Parisian Jewellers February 26, 2009

Indian Princes & Parsian Jewellers exhibition at Ahmedabad. The exhibition organised by Kanoria Centre for Arts. The wearing of jewellery has always seemed an intrinsic part of Indian life. Though the great Moghuls epitomized the saying that the glory of a prince is made tangible by his buildings, his library and his jewels, but are also considered quasi divine, are believed to have astrological attributes and prophylactic properties. The precious metals and stones do not just represent riches or possessions, or even the necessary adjunct of the power and glory.
