A temple jewellery set is not just an ornament — it is a sacred tradition, crafted in the goldsmith towns of Nagercoil, Kumbakonam and Swamimalai for over 400 years. Every motif carries meaning: Goddess Lakshmi on the necklace for abundance, Ganesha on the pendant for new beginnings, lotus flowers on the jhumka for purity. In 2026, this tradition is more in demand than ever — and South Temple Jewellery Pvt Ltd brings you the most authentic, high-quality temple jewellery sets online — starting at ₹499, with a Written 1-Year Warranty and Free COD delivered pan-India.
What Is Temple Jewellery? — History, Origin and Tradition
Temple jewellery was created exclusively for Hindu temples — to adorn the deity idols of Goddess Lakshmi, Lord Balaji and Lord Murugan. The craft originated in the Thanjavur and Nagercoil belt of Tamil Nadu during the Chola and Vijayanagara empires. Over time, these ornaments moved from the sanctum to the stage (classical dance) and then to the bride's trousseau — and today, no south indian wedding or Bharatanatyam arangetram is complete without an authentic temple jewellery set.
What makes temple jewellery distinct from other gold jewellery is its iconography — the deeply embossed deity motifs crafted using the repoussé technique (hammering gold from the back), kemp stone settings, and the use of lac (resin filling) inside hollow ornaments for weight and resonance. At South Temple Jewellery Pvt Ltd, every piece recreates this 400-year-old craft using 1 gram 18K gold plating on pure brass — preserving both the look and the tradition at a fraction of the cost.
6 Types of Temple Jewellery Sets — Which One Is Right for You?
The phrase temple jewellery set covers a wide range of styles and use-cases. Here are the 6 main types available at South Temple Jewellery Pvt Ltd — each designed for a specific occasion:
1. Temple Necklace Set — The Centrepiece of Every Authentic Set
The temple necklace set is the defining piece in any south indian temple jewellery collection. The iconic Lakshmi haaram — with Goddess Lakshmi seated on a lotus at the centre, flanked by smaller deity motifs and strung with coral or kemp beads — is immediately recognisable as authentic temple jewellery. At South Temple Jewellery Pvt Ltd, the temple necklace sets follow the original Nagercoil design tradition: bold relief work, antique gold tone and genuine kemp stone accents.
- Kanjeevaram gold silk: Pure antique gold temple haaram with no stone — the silk and gold do all the work. No other necklace needed.
- Red Kanjeevaram: Antique gold necklace + red kemp stone choker — the most-photographed south indian bridal look.
- Mysore silk (cream/ivory): Long Lakshmi necklace + pearl drop jhumka — understated and elegant for everyday wear.
- Bharatanatyam: Addigai choker (embossed) + long Lakshmi jhumka — always antique gold, never AD stone, for classical dance.
- Layering tip: Temple haaram (22 inch) + choker (16 inch) — always different lengths, minimum 4 inch gap between necklaces.
2. Temple Jhumka Set — The Sound of Authentic South Indian Jewellery
A temple jhumka set is more than just an earring — it is the acoustic signature of south indian jewellery. The sound of a large antique jhumka swinging against the neck chain defines the muhurtham moment, the Bharatanatyam arangetram, and the festival puja. South Temple Jewellery Pvt Ltd crafts every temple jhumka with a detailed Lakshmi or Ganesha relief on the cap, a layered bell body and a genuine jhumki (small inner bell) that rings with every movement.
