No stones. Pure goldwork. 22k Gold Plated.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eChakraelā — meaning \u003cem\u003e“Star Anise \u0026amp; Cardamom”\u003c\/em\u003e — is a ring built entirely from the spice garden. At its centre sits a large cast star anise: eight elongated petals radiating from a central point, each one deeply ribbed along its length and fully three-dimensional, domed on the face and hollow beneath in the manner of the actual dried spice. The form is architectural — perfectly symmetrical, immediately recognisable — and in 22k Gold Plated it reads as both botanical and solar, the star form carrying associations of both the spice market and classical Indian sun motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAbove the star anise, three cardamom pods cluster on a naturalistic stem: two smaller pods flanking a central larger one, each individually cast with the same deep longitudinal ribbing that runs across the star anise petals below. The pods are proportioned as they appear in nature — elongated, slightly tapered, their surface defined entirely by the ribbing rather than by any additional engraving. On the finger — as shown in the editorial photograph — the full botanical cluster rises dramatically from the knuckle, the pods projecting upward and outward in a form that draws the eye immediately and holds it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCraft \u0026amp; Material\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted entirely in India by \u003cstrong\u003ehighly skilled karigars\u003c\/strong\u003e, Chakraelā is made in \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-quality brass alloy\u003c\/strong\u003e — \u003cem\u003eanti-allergic and skin-friendly\u003c\/em\u003e — and finished in \u003cstrong\u003e22k Gold Plated\u003c\/strong\u003e as photographed, or your choice of \u003cstrong\u003e925 Silver Plated, Rose Gold Plated,\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eBlack Rhodium Plated\u003c\/strong\u003e. Each plated finish is sealed with a \u003cstrong\u003eprotective e-coating\u003c\/strong\u003e for tarnish and wear resistance. The star anise form and each cardamom pod are individually cast; the ribbed band is hand-finished. No two pieces are mechanically identical — natural minor variations in cast surface texture, rib definition, and finish character are inherent to handmade production and are not defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy It Sells\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003espice botanical motif\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of the most commercially distinctive directions in contemporary Indian demi-fine jewellery — it draws directly on India’s material heritage while reading as fresh, editorial, and globally relevant rather than traditionally regional. The \u003cstrong\u003estar anise form\u003c\/strong\u003e is immediately recognisable across Asian, Middle Eastern, and European markets where the spice is part of everyday culinary culture — it carries both cultural familiarity and a strong graphic identity. The \u003cstrong\u003ecardamom pod cluster\u003c\/strong\u003e adds a secondary botanical that reinforces the Indian spice narrative without duplicating the primary form. The ring is a \u003cstrong\u003epure goldwork statement piece\u003c\/strong\u003e — no stones, no colour distraction — which makes it exceptionally versatile across styling contexts and finish options. The \u003cstrong\u003eadjustable open-back band\u003c\/strong\u003e eliminates sizing complexity for wholesale buyers. Four finish options allow a single design to serve multiple consumer segments and price points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCraft \u0026amp; Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Metal:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-quality brass alloy — anti-allergic and skin-friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCraftsmanship:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully cast and hand-finished by skilled karigars of India; individually cast star anise form and cardamom pod cluster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentre Form:\u003c\/strong\u003e Star anise — eight elongated ribbed petals radiating from central node, fully three-dimensional, deeply ribbed surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUpper Cluster:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three cardamom (elaichi) pods on naturalistic stem — two smaller flanking pods + one larger central pod, each individually cast with longitudinal ribbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Open-back adjustable band with ribbed \/ rope-texture shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thick-layer electroplating in 22k Gold Plated, 925 Silver Plated, Rose Gold Plated, or Black Rhodium Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm polished 22k Gold Plated (as photographed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtective Coating:\u003c\/strong\u003e E-coating applied over plating for tarnish and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adjustable open-back band — fits most finger sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCategory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRings \/ Cocktail Rings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRing Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBotanical cocktail ring — adjustable open-back band\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCentre Form\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStar Anise — eight deeply ribbed radiating petals, fully cast\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUpper Cluster\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCardamom (Elaichi) — three individually cast ribbed pods on naturalistic stem\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStones\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone — pure goldwork\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpen-back adjustable with ribbed shank\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrass alloy (anti-allergic, skin-friendly)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCraftsmanship\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandmade by skilled karigars of India\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThick-layer electroplating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtective Coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE-coating over plating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarm polished 22k Gold Plated (as photographed)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdjustable — open-back band fits most finger sizes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAvailable Finishes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e22k Gold Plated\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003e(as photographed)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e925 Silver Plated\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRose Gold Plated\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlack Rhodium Plated\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAll variants share the same handcrafted construction and protective e-coating.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWholesale Supply\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eChakraelā is \u003cstrong\u003emanufactured and supplied factory-direct from India\u003c\/strong\u003e, enabling consistent quality control, competitive wholesale pricing, and reliable lead times.
