Kirpeeni is an ornate hairpin that keeps the tied hair/bun in place. This piece is handcrafted in silver and then plated with 18k gold.
Gold and silver filigree, also known as ‘Tarakashi’ in Odia, flourished in the city of Cuttack under royal patronage. This delicate, time-consuming style of metal work uses high-quality metal wire and the hands of very skilled artisans who can transform wire into beautiful jewellery.
